Abstract: An adapter for converting a single electrical outlet into a multiple electrical outlet. The adapter includes a housing having a front and a back, and two opposed sides extending between the front and back. Each of the sides of the adapter includes a pod having at least one electrical socket. Electrically conductive live and neutral buses are mounted within in the housing. The live and neutral buses each include respective prongs capable of being inserted into an electrical outlet. The live and neutral buses also each include a pair of electrically conductive strips, each supported by a respective one of the pods, such that a live and neutral strip extends along each of the two opposed sides of the adapter, adjacent the sockets, to electrically conductively engage the live and neutral prongs of electrical devices inserted into the sockets.
