Abstract: A filter element, in particular an air filter element, has a filter media body surrounding a hollow interior and has a first end and an opposite second end. A first end cap is positioned on the first end of the filter media body, and a second end cap is positioned on the second end of the filter media body. The second end cap is a closed end cap. The second end cap has a plurality of spaced-apart inner adapter projections arranged thereon and projecting in direction of a central axis away from the first end cap. At least some of the inner adapter projections are positioned in a circular arrangement so as to surround a center of the second end cap. Such a filter element is arranged in a housing of a filter system provided with a receiver arrangement for the filter element.

Abstract: A device for protecting a plug-in connection between a first power plug of an electric appliance and a switchable power socket. The switchable power socket has a socket for receiving the first power plug and a second power plug for coupling the switchable power socket to an electrical mains. The device has a wall which, when the device is installed, at least partially surrounds the switchable power socket with the first power plug plugged therein. The wall is formed with a plug-side recess in which the second power plug at least partially penetrates the wall. The wall covers the first power plug at least partially, when the device is installed, in order to prevent the first power plug from being pulled out of the socket. A sensor detects whether or not the wall surrounds the switchable power socket and informs a control unit that controls the electrical device.
