Looking at that pic of the plug there also doesn't appear to be the usual hole at the end of the neutral blade. Could it be an Japanese cord set or something like that? I thought that all NEMA-approved fittings had the holes on 15 and 20A devices.
Hi Paul,
No, that's an after-market replacement plug.
GE-brand to be exact, made in China.
I call them "Walmart specials" because that's where they're commonly found. They're overpriced and the pins are flimsy and bend easily.
