13A96
13A96 is a designation that can refer to several different things depending on the context. In electrical engineering, it is commonly used to denote a standard electrical plug and socket configuration. Specifically, it refers to a Type A socket with a maximum current rating of 13 amperes and a voltage rating of 240 volts. This is the standard plug and socket type used in countries like the United Kingdom, Ireland, Malta, Malaysia, and Singapore. The plug has three rectangular pins: a live pin, a neutral pin, and a larger earth pin. The socket is designed to accept this specific plug configuration and incorporates a fuse within the plug for safety.
Beyond electrical standards, 13A96 might also appear as a serial number, product code, or identification marker
