Patent number: 10916880Abstract: A modular electrical receptacle in which more than one of the modular electrical receptacles can be connected to form a larger receptacle connected to a single source of power. The modular electrical receptacle includes a housing having a front surface with a first and a second electrical outlet. The housing further includes a first tab extending from a first end and a second end extending from a second end for securing the modular receptacle to an in-wall electrical box. The housing further includes a power link, such as a conductive extension, for connecting directly to another module and providing the other module with access to the single source of power. The power link can be three links for connecting to a positive line, a neutral line and a ground line to another module. The housing also includes a coupler for connecting the housing to a power link of another module.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 2018Date of Patent: February 9, 2021Inventor: Chrestos T. Pyrros
