Yes, a 1500-watt kettle should work nicely on a 15-A plug at 120 volts, provided there are no other large loads on the same branch at the same time. The 15-A branch will support up to 1800 watts, but only until the breaker trips.
A vacuum typically requires an amp plug with a rating of 10-12 amps for standard household use. Be sure to check the manufacturer's specifications for the specific power requirements of your vacuum cleaner.
No, the amperage pin configurations are different between a 15 amp and a 30 amp plug.
It is not recommended to create an extension cable that connects a 30 amp plug to a 15 amp plug. This can cause overheating and potentially create a fire hazard. It's important to use appropriate plugs and cables for the correct amperage to ensure safety.
No, a 20 amp machine should not be run on a 15 amp plug because the plug is not designed to handle the higher electrical load of the machine. This could lead to overheating, tripping of the circuit breaker, or even starting a fire. It is important to always match the amp rating of the plug to the requirements of the machine.
Plugging a 20amp plug into a 15 amp outlet can lead to overloading the outlet, causing it to overheat and potentially start a fire. It is important to use outlets that match the amp rating of the plug to prevent electrical hazards.
No, it is not safe to use a 15 amp plug on a 20 amp circuit as it can overload the circuit and potentially cause a fire hazard.
A device that uses a 15 amp plug requires a standard electrical outlet with a 15 amp rating.
15 amp outlet on a 20 amp circuit.
A device that uses a 220 15 amp plug requires a 220-volt outlet with a 15 amp capacity.
A vacuum typically requires an amp plug with a rating of 10-12 amps for standard household use. Be sure to check the manufacturer's specifications for the specific power requirements of your vacuum cleaner.
No, the amperage pin configurations are different between a 15 amp and a 30 amp plug.

Current carrying capacity is different.
Plugging a 20amp plug into a 15 amp outlet can lead to overloading the outlet, causing it to overheat and potentially start a fire. It is important to use outlets that match the amp rating of the plug to prevent electrical hazards.
15 amp will run 8 outlets unless they are going to be heavily loaded. In that case use 20 amps.
Yes, you can use a 15 amp outlet on a 20 amp circuit. The outlet's amp rating should not exceed the circuit's amp rating.
