A method and apparatus for providing power includes a power socket module having a first conducting layer and a second conducting layer. An insulating layer may be positioned in between the first and second conducting layers. A plug includes a first prong having a first length and second prong having a second length, where the first length is longer than the second length. When the plug is plugged into the power socket module, the first prong electrically couples to the second conducting layer, and the second prong electrically couples to the first conducting layer

An electrical connector configured to control a compression force applied to a core is disclosed. The electrical connector includes a body having a tubular shape, a centerline extending along a longitudinal direction of the body, and an opening extending along the centerline from an outer surface of the body to the center cavity. The body includes a center cavity configured to receive and encase the core. The centerline defines a first portion and a second portion such that the first portion includes a bore hole configured to receive a bolt and the second portion includes a tap hole with a tapered threaded portion configured to receive a screw portion of the bolt. The tap hole is aligned with the bore hole so that the bolt may connect the bore hole and the tap hole to close the opening.

A modular junction box device that houses port sub-housings which each contain electrically-conductive connector clips that facilitate quick, push-in electrical connection of the hot, neutral and ground wires within a supply wire cable leading from a power source with the corresponding distribution wires leading to each of any number powered devices. The invention utilizes internalized push-in connectors to allow a single supply electrical wire cable (line in) to be connected to multiple distribution wire cables (lines out) without the need for a proportionate amount of internal wiring that ordinarily connects supply and distribution wires inside of a junction box.

A pad extender for connecting a conductor cable to a transformer. The pad extender includes a planar body including a first portion and a second portion. The pad extender further includes a pair of through-openings defined in the first portion of the planar body. Each of the pair of through-openings is configured to receive two fasteners. The pad extender further includes at least one aperture defined in the second portion of the planar body. The planar body is slidable relative to the transformer along the pair of through-openings.

A pad extender for connecting a conductor cable to a transformer. The pad extender includes a planar body including a first portion and a second portion, the first portion having a first portion length. The pad extender further includes an elongate slot defined in the first portion of the planar body, the elongate slot extending along a majority of the first portion length. The pad extender further includes at least one aperture defined in the second portion of the planar body. Wherein the planar body is slidable relative to the transformer along the elongate slot.

The invention relates to a direct burial ground lug. The lug is preferably constructed of a phosphor bronze material. The block may have two through holes to install two conductors, rods, cables, and the like. Stainless steel threaded screws are used to hold the rod and ground conductor in a stable condition. The threaded screws insert into threaded holes positioned perpendicular to the through holes. The direct burial ground lug allows the ground rod and ground conductor to be connected for a continuous grounding system.

A power plug with leakage current protection device, which includes a body formed of an upper cover and a base, a core assembly disposed in the body, a cable assembly attached to the body, a plurality of input insertion plates and output moving contact arms which are assembled with the core assembly, and an insertion plate sleeve disposed on the base, where the input insertion plates pass through the insertion plate sleeve to protrude from the base. The insertion plate sleeve is made of an insulating and temperature resistant material. The power plug has a simple overall structure and can be assembled easily and reliably. It can prevent the safety risk caused by high temperature of the input insertion plates without increasing the size of the plug. It also has low cost, and can be suitably employed in various types of power plugs.
