  • Publication number: 20040067692
    Abstract: A safety electrical outlet for receiving metallic prongs of an electrical plug. The outlet has a housing with at least two plug passages being sized for receiving the metallic prongs of the electrical plug, and two metallic connectors mounted on the housing for connection to an electrical power source. At least two transverse channels communicate with the corresponding plug passages and extend toward the corresponding metallic connectors with at least two spring-biased members being inserted in each corresponding transverse channel and being movable between an extended position where the spring-biased member partially extends within the corresponding plug passage and a retracted position where the corresponding metallic prong that is inserted inside the passage pushes against the spring-biased member so that it touches the corresponding metallic connector for establishing an electrical contact between the metallic prong and the corresponding metallic connector.
