Although this exists, as a layperson, I've rarely seen it. There is the NEMA 6-15R receptacle type, but I have literally none of those in my entire house, and I've really never seen them. Apparently they're sometimes used for air conditioners. Aside from the very common 5-15R, I see 5-20R (especially in businesses/hospitals), and 14-30R/14-50R for ranges and dryers. (I have one for my range, but here in the midwest electric dryers and ranges aren't as common, so you don't always come across these here. We have LNG ran to most properties.) So basically, I just really don't see a whole lot of NEMA 6 receptacles. The NEMA 14 receptacles, though, require both hots and the neutral, so in a typical U.S. service panel it requires a special breaker and to take up two slots, so definitely not as simple of a retrofit.

(Another outlet type I've seen: I saw a NEMA 7 277V receptacle before. I think you get this from one phase of a 480V three-phase system, which I understand is ran to many businesses.)
