NEMA plug and receptacle configurations.

For 208-240V EV charger use:
2-nn not useable -- no ground;
5-nn not useable -- 125V only;
7-nn not useable -- 277V;
11-nn not useable -- no ground;
15-nn and 18-nn useable but not commonly found -- three phase.

Use extreme caution when using a three-phase receptacle, type 15 or 18!
Use a voltmeter to verify that the two legs being used are both approximately 120V to ground.
