    Abstract: Disclosed is a tamper proof power outlet facility having features of general utility in power outlet facilities generally and, in particular, those serving a pair of adjacent power consumers, such as adjacent boat slips, mobile trailer parking sites etc. The sheet metal housing has metal sockets suspended between the inner side of a cover for the meter compartment and the inner side of the housing bottom by fasteners accessible only from the housing front before installation of the meter. A service outlet compartment along one or both sides of the meter compartment houses an area illuminating lamp, a circuit breaker, and a female outlet receptacle accessible for reception or removal of a service cord male connector only by releasing a normally locked cover for the service outlet compartment. The meter or meters, when installed in a respective socket, are anchored against removal by seals and preclude access to fasteners holding the meter compartment cover closed.
