Type I (AS/NZS 3112) refers to a standard for electrical plugs used in Australia and New Zealand. It specifies the design and safety requirements for the two flat pins and one grounding pin in a plug that connects electrical devices to power outlets. This standard ensures compatibility and safety, minimizing risks such as electrical shock. Devices made according to this standard can be safely used with compatible outlets, making Type I plugs a key part of electrical infrastructure in these countries. Understanding this standard helps ensure safe and effective use of electrical appliances.
