Answer:

National Electrical Code

Step-by-step explanation:

The National Electrical Code (NEC) is the foundational code that establishes the minimum requirements for electrical installation work. The NEC protects individuals and properties from being discriminated against dangers associated with the use of electricity. For electrical installation work, local and state electrical standards and codes should be consulted in addition to the NEC.

Section 406.4 of the NEC refers to On the same premises, receptacles linked to circuits with distinct voltages frequencies, or kinds of current (AC or DE) must be designed in such a way that the attachment plugs utilized on these circuits cannot be interchanged.
