One reason the NEC (National Electrical Code) was established was to create standards that EVERYONE, yes even those who are not electrically inclined, can reasonably assume. That means that when they see a certain type of receptacle, it only accepts a certain plug, assuring them that it will be the proper voltage, amperage, phase, polarity, frequency, blah, blah, blah for their intended application. When ANYONE intentionally or unintentionally deviates from the standards for whatever reason, they are creating a time bomb for the next sorry sucker who didn't know about the "NEW STANDARD" and they end up damaging their electrical system.
Most children at some point in their young life receive a substantial jolt which reminds them not to touch certain things that they don't understand. Most learn from that experience. Some don't. Who do you want to be? IMO using a new or modified electrical system that you haven't previously tested tells me that possibly you have been jolted one to many times and failed to learn.
