wa2wise or anyone else that knows....will that tandem blade hubbell plug in the pic also fit into that NEMA 6-15 receptacle? I can't tell if the pins are wider than the slots on that 6-15 or.....????

Yes it does. I've since used that plug on a European domestic radio set that wants 230VAC. So it can be plugged into a NEMA 6-15 which I have a few of thruout the house.
Can't say I've ever seen a male plug with t-shaped prongs....I think there was the standard parallel (NEMA 1-15) and the standard tandem (like what's shown in the first pic)....
I don't suppose there were any plugs in the old days where one prong was tandem and the other parallel? Sorta like what would fit a NEMA 5-20 receptacle or a 6-20?
Also does anyone know when they stopped making receptacles out of porcelain and when they started making them out of plastic?
