I believe that picture is of a 110V 20A plug. Haven't seen one of those since my younger days as a cook. Well, I stand corrected, that could be a 220V plug. Not sure what the amp is but thought someone said it was a Ameritron AL-811. According to the manual the max draw is 8A (but I think that's at 220V, the manual is a little vague). The unit is shipped with 12A fuses when wired from the factory at 110V.
Just my two cents worth.

The manual states a 5-15P plug comes standard for 120VAC operation.
The 5-15 connector is rated at 15A.
Our rig is equipped with a 20A, 5-20P to accommodate the receptacle in the Garage at The Club which is a 5-20R. It is oversized in terms of current supplying capability so it should never degrade due to heat damage. The 5-20 connectors are rated for 120VAC service, not 220VAC.
