Wall Safe Electrical

US electrical plugs and socket question - strange setup for a/c?
Hey guys...forgive my electrical ignorance here.
This is the situation: I've recently moved into a studio from a 2bedroom, within NYC. My summer electric bill went up from about $60 to $200 during this move. Keep in mind the new place is a lot smaller to cool.
Anyway, putting aside the hikes in rates, I suspect the culprit is a big old clunky wall A/C unit which is provided by the landlord. It looks like something out of the 70s.
I'd like to try get an energy reading on this using a P3 device or something of the like, but the actual plug and socket isn't the usual a/c design. it looks like this:
|
-----C
|
instead of:
__
-----c
__
Is this normal? Are there standard converter products? And will this experiment be safe?
Any other tips would be appreciated!
Thanks!
just replace the existing wall outlet with one that is the common type.

| | Hidden Wall Safe $7.99 The Hidden Wall Safe is handy because most burglars spend less than six minutes inside a victim's home and only have time to check the most obvious places for valuables. These unique wall safes allow you to hide valuables inside one of many identical looking wall outlets you already have in your home, the last place someone is likely to look. According to the Chicago Police these units are better than a locked safe and a hundred times cheaper. Worried about the outlet cover not matching your other outlets? No sweat, you can interchange any standard plug cover for this one to match your other plugs. |
| | Insulator (Electrical) $93.99 An insulator, also called a dielectric, is a material that resists the flow of electric current. An insulating material has atoms with tightly bonded valence electrons. These materials are used in parts of electrical equipment, also called insulators or insulation, intended to support or separate electrical conductors without passing current through themselves. The term is also used more specifically to refer to insulating supports that attach electric power transmission wires to utility poles or pylons. Some materials such as glass, paper or Teflon are very good electrical insulators. A much larger class of materials, for example rubberlike polymers and most plastics are still good enough to insulate electrical wiring and cables even though they may have lower bulk resistivity. These materials can serve as practical and safe insulators for low to moderate voltages (hundreds, or even thousands, of volts).

How to use a drill safely
Electrical wires in BX cable or plastic cables???
My contractor used plastic cables to connect an outlet off an existing outlet on the same wall. From the same outlet he has plastic cable for under cabinet lights. My Super says he should use BX cables cuz plastic cables can get too hot and burn inside wall. My contractor says everythings fine and safe. Anyone know which is true? I'm told contractors use plastic in private homes but Co-op/apartment buildings have different codes. Help.
Your Super is wrong, wire in plastic (Romex) will not heat up and burn within a wall. Using Romex for undercabinet lights is allowable, however some CITIES require either BX cable or surface molding (rigid metal snap together conduit) for any wiring in condos or co-ops.
