An AC power input socket includes a casing and at least two conductive pins. The casing comprises a connection side and an output side based on performance of the AC power input socket. The casing is provided with an accommodating groove at the connection side, each of the two conductive pins includes a power connection section located in the accommodating groove, an output section extending from the power connection section and passing through the casing to be exposed on the output side, and a capacitor connecting section extending from an end of the output section. Each of the conductive pins is provided with a through hole in the output section for disposing an electric wire, and the capacitor connecting section provides a capacitor pin to be connected thereon, so that the capacitor pin and the electric wire do not need to be disposed at a same hole position.

A compensating plug connector comprising a plug, a receptacle mating zone, a cable mating zone and an intermediate zone. Each of the zones is such that Near End Cross Talk (NEXT) resulting from transmission of the high frequency signal across each zone is below a specified amount chosen such that NEXT introduced by a high frequency signal transmission between via all the zones is below a level as specified for the cabling category.

An electrical connector includes a male electrical plug, a female socket, a housing, and a control system. The male electrical plug, which is supplied with power, is electrically connected to the female socket. The housing contains the male electrical plug, the female socket, and a control system. The control system includes a temperature sensor and a transceiver with the temperature sensor sensing a temperature at a location within the housing and the transceiver transmitting a signal representative of the temperature to an alarm device remotely located from the electrical connector. The electrical connector can include one or more switches that are remotely controllable by the alarm device to interrupt the electrical connection between the male plug and the female socket.

This invention relates to configurable electrical receptacles and more particularly to electrical receptacles that accept in-situ replacement of an insert providing a specific functionality within an electrical receptacle which is configurable to function or user accessible feature.

An electrical port device having an electrical port and a cap or cover removable connected to the electrical port having a plug. The cap or cover and the electrical port have cooperating sealing surface to ensure a tight waterproof sealing when the cap or cover is installed on the electrical port to prevent water or moisture reaching the plug.

A poke-in terminal includes a main body, a tab terminal socket at a mating end, and a wire socket at a terminating end. The tab terminal socket includes walls forming a tab terminal receptacle configured to receive a tab terminal. Upper and lower beam contacts extend into the tab terminal receptacle to interface with the tab terminal. The wire socket includes walls forming a wire receptacle configured to receive a wire. Poke-in retention beams extend into the wire receptacle to interface with the wire when poked into the wire socket. The wire socket includes a wire release element configured to be actuated to release the poke-in retention beams from the wire.
