Electrical safety plug
Examples provide an electrical safety plug including a nonconductive plug body. A set of pins conform to a set of pin connector slots in an electrical outlet. A tether is threaded through a tether connection aperture in an anchor couple. A first inter-locking device on the anchor couple removably attaches to a second inter-locking device on a return couple having an attachment member. The first interlocking device disengages from the second interlocking device to separate the anchor couple from the return couple during use. The anchor couple attaches to a part of a case during use create tension in the tether. The tension pulls an electrical harness in a direction of an attachment point of the tether. The nonconductive plug body covers the set of pin connection slots and the tether pulls the electrical harness away from a base member.
Trailer illumination assembly
A trailer illumination assembly includes a trailer that has a plurality of running lights disposed on the trailer. The trailer includes a power source is positioned in the trailer and a female light plug which can be electrically coupled to a male light plug on a towing vehicle. The female light plug is in communication with the plurality of running light. An adapter plug is pluggable into the female light plug when the female light plug is not electrically coupled to the male light plug on the towing vehicle. Additionally, the adapter plug places the power source on the trailer in electrical communication with the plurality of running lights on the trailer. In this way the running lights on the trailer can be powered by the power source on the trailer.

Integrated pick up truck bed
A vehicle cargo compartment system includes an electric outlet mounted within an accessible location within a vehicle cargo compartment and a sensor assembly mounted proximate the electric outlet within the cargo compartment for detecting a presence of an electrical power cord. The cargo compartment system integrates powered features such as an electric outlet, powered tailgate and the powered top that utilizes environmental information gathered by various sensors on the vehicle in combination with predefined actions to simplify use and automate operation.
Safety apparatus having terminal shield with indication circuit, and circuit interruption apparatus
A safety apparatus is a terminal shield having an indication circuit incorporated therein. The safety apparatus is usable with a circuit interrupter to overlie one or more terminals of the circuit interrupter that are connected with line and load conductors and to thereby form a circuit interrupter apparatus. The safety apparatus can be employed at the line side of a circuit interrupter, at the load side of a circuit interrupter, or at both sides of a circuit interrupter. The safety apparatus can be provided as part of a new circuit interrupter apparatus or can be provided to retrofit existing circuit interrupters. The indication circuit advantageously outputs from a top surface of the terminal shield one of a visual indication and an audible indication when one or more terminals of the circuit interrupter are electrified, thereby easily conveying to a technician the portions of the circuit interrupter that are electrified.
Residential emergency lighting system
A lighting system for an electrical device includes one or more light sources coupled to an electrical outlet. The one or more light sources are configured to receive power from a power supply and configured to generate output light on at least one side edge of the electrical device. The lighting system includes a controller communicatively coupled to the one or more light sources. The controller is configured to receive a signal from an auxiliary unit and control the one or more light sources to operate between an on-state and an off-state responsive to the signal from the auxiliary unit.

Electrical arrangement on an aircraft fuselage with an electrical consumer on the outside of the fuselage
An electrical arrangement on an aircraft fuselage has a fuselage component, an electrical consumer and a conductive electrical connection element. The connection element extends outwardly through an opening in the fuselage component and may have a bearing section on an inside or outside of the fuselage component that is arranged so as to tap or feed a voltage pole. The electrical connection element is electrically insulated from the opening and the fuselage component and is able to be connected to a voltage supply arranged on the inside. The electrical consumer is arranged on the outside of the fuselage component and is electrically connected to that part of the connection element projecting towards the outside of the fuselage.
Electrical outlet cover with integrated lighting with connectivity
A lighting device and system having a faceplate and a backplate. The faceplate or the backplate may have an arm or a set of arms having electrical conductors to connect or couple to the electrical contact points of an outlet, plug, or switch. The operational modes may be in an emergency lighting mode and a nightlight mode. The voltage source can be connected to a light source or sensor through the control circuit or the switch, and the light source may be activated based on the output of the sensor. A controller is connected to the sensor can send or receive wireless signals through a wireless module.
SINGLE PAIR ETHERNET CONNECTOR
A connector device produces a connection by means of Single Pair Ethernet (SPE). The connector device includes at least one connection element for an SPE connection, a light source for generating a light emission, and a light-guide element. The light source is set up to couple the generated light emission into the light-guide element, and the light-guide element is set up to couple an output-light distribution out in a coupling-out area.
