In the process of global harmonisation, the US and Canada will adopt the IEC 60320 standard for device plugs with minor deviations.

The IEC 60320 appliance plug standard represents a worldwide valid standard. Global standards make it easy for both component and device manufacturers to evaluate guaranteed suitable sockets and plugs.

Beyond that the safety is examined against electrical impact just like against fire.
