A dimming switch may be coupled to the at last one LED, the dimming switch configured to move between a first position that activates about 50% luminosity of the at least one LED, a second position that deactivates about 100% luminosity of the at least one LED, and a third position that activates about 100% luminosity of the at least one LED. A housing may be coupled to the body, the housing comprising an access opening through which the dimming switch may be moved among the first position, the second position, and the third position. A housing may also comprise a locking element configured to prevent the dimmable tamper resistant nightlight from being removed from the electrical receptacle.

Abstract: A floor electrical outlet cover may be disposed over and coupled to a floor electrical outlet, the floor electrical outlet cover comprising a first color and further comprising at least one opening aligned with the floor electrical outlet, and at least one flap coupled to the floor electrical outlet cover, the flap configured to move from a closed position that restricts access to the floor electrical outlet to an open position that provides access to the floor electrical outlet. A colored electrical plate cover may comprise a second color different from the first color and a structural element coupled to the floor electrical outlet cover. The colored electrical plate cover may further comprise at least one opening aligned with the at least one opening in the floor electrical outlet cover. At least one colored flap cover may be coupled to the flap.

Abstract: A powered wall plate with at least two electrical plug prongs configured to removably mate with an electrical receptacle of an electrical device. A protruding front face extends from the front surface and has a plurality of electrical current apertures extending into the front face, which are configured to receive an electrical plug. A plurality of mounting screw apertures extend through the wall plate, configured to receive a plurality of mounting screws to attach the wall plate to the electrical device. One of the mounting screw apertures may be located on the front face. A spacer may be placed between the wall plate and the electrical device to close a gap. A plurality of LED lights is located along a bottom edge of the front surface, a photocell is exposed on the front surface of the wall plate, and a control switch has an on position, an off position, and an auto position.

Abstract: An electrical receptacle including a body having a first cavity and a second cavity, a plurality of first electrical connections in the first cavity and a plurality of second electrical connections in the second cavity, at least one electrical plug sensing device in the first cavity, and wherein electrical continuity to the plurality of first electrical connections from the plurality of second electrical connections only occurs when the at least one electrical plug sensing device senses a presence of an electrical plug in the first cavity.

Abstract: An electrical box comprising an adjustable voltage divider may include a housing comprising an inner surface and ribs or threads integrally formed on the inner surface of the rectangular housing. A voltage divider plate may be disposed within the housing with vertical edges of the voltage divider plate extending along and held in place between the ribs or threads integrally formed on the inner surface of the housing, the voltage divider plate dividing the housing into a high voltage area and a low voltage area. The voltage divider plate area may comprise a plurality of horizontal guide lines vertically offset from each other, and a plurality of vertical guide lines horizontally offset from each other and intersecting the plurality of horizontal score lines. Upper outer corners of the voltage divider plate may be inwardly disposed from the vertical edges of the voltage divider plate.

Abstract: An enclosure, such as an electrical enclosure, includes a base having a series of walls that define an interior, and a cover. The base and cover include a hinge arrangement that enables the cover to be secured to the base for movement between a closed position and an open position. The hinge arrangement enables the cover to be hinged to either a first wall of the base or an opposite, second wall of the base. A latch member is configured to be selectively engaged with either the first wall of the base or the second wall of the base, and is engaged with the second wall of the base when the cover is hinged to the first wall of the base and is engaged with the first wall of the base when the cover is hinged to the second wall of the base.
