Abstract: A connection device employs a plurality of housing portions that are formed separately from one another and further includes a plurality of conductors. The plurality of conductors are situated on a first housing portion, and a second housing portion and a third housing portion are then affixed at opposite ends of the first housing portion to retain the conductors in place on the first housing portion. The first, second, and third housing portions, being connected together, are then received in a receptacle of a fourth housing portion to form the connection device. The conductors each have an elongated shank that is received in an elongated channel formed in the first housing portion before the second and third housing portions are attached thereto.

Abstract: Power receptacles with cover with an electrical outlet and a base attached to the cover. The base includes a plurality of spaced apart electrical contacts under the electrical outlet. At least one of the cover or the base includes at least one internal attachment member that cooperates with a receiving channel in the other of the cover or the base to frictionally attach the cover and base together. The at least one attachment member can be a plurality of such members and one or more can include ribs, optionally crush ribs.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides techniques or an electrical wiring device with symmetric and robust actuation. An electrical wiring device includes a toggle assembly comprising a compression spring and a spring cup disposed at one end of the compression spring. The spring cup includes a lower portion and an upper portion. The lower portion includes an outer diameter at most as large at the inner diameter of the compression spring and is disposed within the end of the compression spring. The upper portion has a recess therein and is configured to receive a spring seat of a toggle, and allows the spring seat to rotate within the recess when the toggle is actuated.
