Rating (Voltage) question.

When we buy a plug or socket, there is a voltage rating and a current rating. Furutech plugs are rated as 120V 15A/240V 10A. So I figure it is the power throughput that really matters - though the aforementioned figures are not strictly consistent - and not much the voltage.

My question is: if one uses the plug at a small fraction of the wattage rated, it should be fine, shouldn't it? For instance, a 240V 13A plug for 500V, 0.2A, some typical B+ application.
