IEC 60320 Connectors

IEC 60320 power cables come in normal and high-temperature variants, as well as various rated currents. The connectors have slightly different shapes to ensure that it is not possible to substitute a cable with a lower temperature or current rating, but that it is possible to use an overrated cable. Cords also have different types of exterior jackets available to accommodate environmental variables such as moisture, temperature, oils, sunlight, flexibility, and heavy wear. For example, a heating appliance may come with a cord designed to withstand accidental contact with heated surfaces.

The Earth pin is always longer than the Active and Neutral pins. This ensures the earth connection is made first on insertion and broken last on removal, providing continuous protection throughout the connection cycle.

The Active and Neutral pins are arranged at 30° to the vertical, forming the characteristic inverted V-shape. All three pins are arranged at 120° angles around a common midpoint. The pin spacing (centre-to-centre between Active and Neutral) is 13.7mm.

Active vs Neutral: How to Tell Which is Which

When viewing the plug from the face (Earth pin at the bottom):

• Top-right pin = Active (marked A)
• Top-left pin = Neutral (marked N)
• Bottom-centre pin = Earth (marked E)

On the socket (viewing from the front), the positions are mirrored: top-left is Active and top-right is Neutral. This reversal is why the wiring diagrams for plugs and sockets differ, and it is a frequent source of errors when rewiring.

The terminals on quality plug tops are marked A, N, and E. Always follow these markings rather than relying on pin position alone, particularly when working with older or unfamiliar hardware.

Plug with Insulated Pins

Under Australian Standard AS/NZS 3112, all modern mains plugs and appliances with integral pins must have insulated Active and Neutral pins. This critical safety requirement was introduced in response to serious injuries and fatalities where a metal object, like a knife or ruler, made contact with a partially withdrawn plug, causing an electric shock.

Since April 2005, it has been mandatory for all new equipment sold in Australia and New Zealand to have this feature. This ensures a much higher level of safety in homes and workplaces.

How Insulated Pins Work

The insulation covers the base of the Active and Neutral pins. If the plug is pulled partially from the socket, this sleeve prevents accidental contact with the live part of the pin, dramatically reducing the risk of shock. You can easily see the difference between older, non-compliant plugs and modern, safe ones.

Comparing Round vs. Flat Earth Pins

A key visual difference in some Australian mains plugs is the shape of the earth pin. This is a critical safety and compatibility feature designed to prevent equipment from being connected to an incorrect power circuit.

Standard Flat Earth Pin	Special-Purpose Round Earth Pin

Why the Difference?

The standard flat earth pin is used on 10A plugs for all general-purpose outlets. The less common round earth pin is used for plugs intended for connection to a special-purpose circuit. These circuits are often used for applications like controlled lighting, exhaust fans, or specific IT equipment where you want to prevent standard appliances from being plugged in.

By using a different pin shape, the system ensures that only the correct equipment can draw power from that dedicated source, enhancing safety and control over the electrical installation.

History of the Australian Plug

The Australian plug has a longer history than most people realise, and its origins are American rather than British.

The design was patented in 1916 by Harvey Hubbell, an American inventor, under US Patent 1,179,728. The flat pin design was adopted in Australia because the pins could be cheaply stamped out of sheet brass, making them far less expensive to manufacture than the round pins used in British-style plugs at the time.

By the early 1930s, Australian manufacturers had up-rated the design to 250V, 10A capacity. A “gentlemen’s agreement” reportedly reached in 1930 between Fred Cook of Ring-Grip, Geoffrey Gerard of Gerard Industries, and Brian Harper Miller of the State Electricity Commission of Victoria aligned the industry on a common standard. The design was provisionally floated as Standard C112 in 1937 and formally adopted in 1938.

The standard was superseded by AS 3112 in 1990, then harmonised with New Zealand as AS/NZS 3112. The major 2000 revision (AS/NZS 3112:2000) introduced the requirement for insulated Active and Neutral pins, enforced from 3 April 2005. The 2004 revision (AS/NZS 3112:2004) added more stringent pin bending tests. The current version is AS/NZS 3112:2017.

Australia vs China vs Argentina: Why They Look the Same But Aren’t

Several countries use a Type I plug that looks almost identical to the Australian design but is not legally interchangeable with it.

Country	Standard	Voltage	Key Differences	Legally Usable in Australia?
Australia / NZ	AS/NZS 3112	230V	Insulated pins mandatory, Active top-right	Yes
China	GB 2099 (CPCS/CCC)	220V	Pins 1mm longer, no insulation required, socket mounted inverted (earth at top), plug body dimensions may prevent fitting in recessed AU sockets	No
Argentina	IRAM 2073	220V	Active and Neutral polarity reversed, no insulation required. Using in Australia creates a shock and fire risk.	No

Products sourced from Chinese or Argentinian manufacturers with non-compliant plugs will be rejected at Australian customs or recalled from market. Always verify RCM certification before importing electrical equipment.

Plug Variants

AS/NZS 3112 defines several variants beyond the standard 10A earthed plug. For a complete guide to all current rating variants including socket compatibility and pin dimensions, see our Australian Mains Plug Variants page. For an explanation of the round vs flat earth pin used on some 10A plugs, see Round & Flat Earth Pin Comparison. For the mandatory insulated pin safety requirement, see Mains Plug Insulated Pins.

Power Cords

Australian power supply cords and plugs are SAA certified and manufactured in compliance with AS/NZS 3112 standards for AC power applications in Australia. Also known as Australian mains power leads,In Australia, the electricity supplied by standard wall outlets is referred to as the “mains power system,” which is why Australian power cords are commonly called mains leads, mains cords, mains cables, line cords, or mains power leads.

IEC 60320 Connectors

IEC 60320 power cables come in normal and high-temperature variants, as well as various rated currents. The connectors have slightly different shapes to ensure that it is not possible to substitute a cable with a lower temperature or current rating, but that it is possible to use an overrated cable. Cords also have different types of exterior jackets available to accommodate environmental variables such as moisture, temperature, oils, sunlight, flexibility, and heavy wear. For example, a heating appliance may come with a cord designed to withstand accidental contact with heated surfaces.
