Abstract: A power connection assembly for an appliance includes a receptacle that has an inner wall. The inner wall defines a cavity. A channel is defined by the inner wall and is in communication with the cavity. A power cord is configured to be at least partially received by the cavity of the receptacle. A cap is rotatable between a locked position and an unlocked position and is configured to at least partially encase the power cord. A protrusion extends radially from the cap. A switch is positioned proximate the channel and is operable between an open position and a closed position. The protrusion is received by the channel and is configured to move the switch to the closed position.

Abstract: A data communications system which comprises at least one group of subscriber data interface elements, with each interface element having at least one data input port and a data output port, and each output port being electrically connectable to a subscriber line of the telephone network to transmit data thereon without interfering with any telephone service that may be present on these subscriber line. A network data interface element, for each group of subscriber data interface elements, being located within a short distance from the farthest subscriber data interface element. Each subscriber data interface element having a data input port and a data output port, and each input port being electrically connectable to a subscriber line of the telephone network and in communication with these subscriber data interface elements thereover.
