high voltage outlet
 

I want to put one of those super high powered air conditioners in my
dining room..

There is a high-power outlet in the dining room. However, I have never
seen an outlet like this before. It looks like a 230/30 amp plug, but
twice the size. It is friggin huge.. I am comparing this to the high-
voltage plug I have upstairs..

Is this a 230/30 amp plug that I can just swap out with a new plug
that will fit?

Can't see it from here ( :) ), but sounds like it could be the UK type,
perhaps? Otherwise, w/o a picture or more definitive description I'm at
a loss...

What is the rating for the unit to which it's attached?

Could be a 40A dryer or range outlet. Could be a lot of things but I can't
see it. Did you check the voltage? The breaker? The wire size?

and.. in taking my pics, I see that the outlet in question sez HEMA
and 250 V/ 30 AMP, but it is much bigger than the other outlet in my
bedroom, although the outlet openings are the same configuration.
