The invention relates to a device for separating a male electrical fitting from a female electrical fitting.

The invention relates to an electrical receptacle (1) which can be connected to an electrical plug.

An electric outlet from which a plug can be easily separated.

The invention also relates to an assembly formed by the electrical receptacle (1) and the connector.

The locking plug (1) may be extracted from the electrical outlet through the application of a predetermined force without direct operation of the release mechanism.

The apparatus includes a sensor for sensing displacement of the housing from the female electrical receptacle.

A mechanical catch located on the securement arm, or alternatively friction, is used to resist the extraction of the locking electrical plug (1) from a conventional electrical outlet.

The method utilizes a cable reel that features a power receptacle into which a cable connector can be easily plugged and unplugged.

A female locking electrical outlet is provided including an outlet body having slots for apertured prongs of a standard male electrical plug, a pair of locking receptacles mounted within the outlet body.

Disclosed is an electrical receptacle which is safe for children yet easy for adults to use.

A fuse and resistor device for a solid state lighting device, wherein at least a part of the fuse and resistor device embodies a connection pin arranged to be received at a power supply socket.

The environment-altering apparatus has a front surface which includes an outlet pattern substantially corresponding to the outlet pattern of the electrical receptacle, and a plug configured to interface with the electrical receptacle.

The female terminals cooperate to form an electrical socket into which an external device can be plugged.

A detector assembly is adapted to be removably secured to a female electrical receptacle connected to a power supply where the female receptacle is mounted at a surface of a structure.

An aspect of the present disclosure relates to an electrical receptacle configured to receive a plug having two or more prongs and capable of being connected to an associated load.
