A wall outlet with extendable electrical receptacles is provided. The wall outlet is mountable into the wall outlet cavity of an existing structure. The wall outlet includes extendable electrical receptacles that are extendable from the wall outlet via electrical cables that are wound around a spool. Each electrical cable is wound around a section of the spool, such that it may be unwound, independently, therefrom. The electrical receptacles are attached to ends of the cables and are in electrical communication therewith. A user extends an electrical receptacle from the wall outlet by pulling the electrical receptacle in a first direction, which unwinds the electrical cable from the spool. Each section of the spool is coupled to an actuator that when triggered rotates the corresponding section of the spool in a second direction, which winds the electrical cable around the spool and retracts the electrical receptacle back into the wall outlet.

The present invention generally relates to a load center and a busway, and more particularly relates to a load center that is configured to be efficiently electrically connected to an electrical distribution busway. The busway may include a bus system having one or more bus conductors, and a T-buss extending from the bus system and having one or more flat-bar conductors. Each of the one or more bus conductors may be electrically coupled to a corresponding one of the one or more flat-bar conductors.

There is provided a faceplate for an electrical receptacle having a safety measure, and a method thereof. The faceplate including: a cover mountable on an electrical receptacle, the cover having cover apertures corresponding to electrical terminals of electrical sockets; a pair of horizontally opposed pinching members on the cover; and a shield connected to the pair of horizontally opposed pinching members and mutually biased to block access to at least one of the electrical sockets, the shield configured to permit access to the at least one of the electrical sockets while the pair of horizontally opposed pinching members are engaged by a user.

An article and method for securing electric and data connection plugs to an outlet are disclosed. The article includes an outlet cover with anchoring points and an encasing hood containing a plug with engagement mechanisms to engage with the anchoring points. In an alternate embodiment the article includes a flexible elastomeric device with open portions to secure a plug and cord and cross portions to secure to anchoring points on the outlet cover. The methods include releasably securing the articles to the outlet cover.

The invention regards a plug comprising a housing, a number of connectors and a selector outlet having a movable selector part whereby the configuration of the connectors may be changed when the selector part is moved. The housing may have a triangular cross section defined by a first side A, a second side B and a third side C and where the number of connectors allows for connection of two or more electrical circuits. The invention also relates to a system of plugs and a method of producing the same.

The panel (220), the energy-saving switch (230), and the connector (240) may be formed in a separable module type corresponding to each of the power sockets (130). The separable module type increases usability, because it is possible to use the modules only for necessary ones of the plugs (P) in the power sockets (130) and not to insert them into the power sockets (130) without a plug (P) connected.

A wiring device including a face contact; one or more line contact arms; one or more load contact arms; and a fault detection circuit. The one or more line contact arms having an upper line contact located on a bent portion of the line contact arm, and a lower line contact located on a substantially straight portion of the line contact arm. The one or more load contact arms having a load contact located on a bent portion of the load contact arm. The fault detection circuit that detects a fault condition in said wiring device and generates a fault detection signal when said fault condition is detected, wherein said fault detection signal electrically disconnects the face contact from the upper line contact and the lower line contact from the load contact.
