No. A NEMA 6-20P plug will not mate with a NEMA 5-20R receptacle. With
the configuration oriented ground pin up, facing the receptacle, the
left blade is the hot/line/phase blade on the 5-20R and is oriented
vertical. The corresponding blade on a 6-20P is horizontal.
Then, you don't have any of these T-slot plug appliances in your house?
Does anybody here have a T-slot plug appliance in their house?


I've got one, it's next to a duplex outlet with a 3 outlet plate in the
same box nest to a window in my room., I think they are here in the
event we got a 220V AC unit all we'd need to do is change the Circuirt
Breaker & the neutral over to it..... I don't think it's a good idea,
since a 120V plug fit's into it., if one is not careful you'd end up
ruining your equipment. Žoy
