[QUOTE="Marlow Wilson, post: 81088, member: 47"] Re: Which 50A receptacle should we install for you??? I'm assuming this isn't an either or scenario. Well equipped ballrooms and smaller venues will usually have the 14-50 in addition to a solid cluster of conventional circuits. I agree that in many cases the 14-50 may almost never get used (some places think it's 'neat' that I've used it and didn't know what it was). In other places the connectors are used so much they are broken and dangerous. I even know some wedding bands that have small distros, but they would be SOL with a CS connector. Just to contribute another perspective, the electric car charging folks have had to contend with even more adapters. Most Tesla owners end up with a 14-50 wired up in their garage, but it will be interesting to see what the future holds for a more user friendly high-current plug, if indeed electric cars do (eventually) become more commonplace. This isn't meant as to start a quasi-political discussion about the merits of electric cars!
