  • Patent number: 10541501
    Abstract: The present disclosure is an apparatus for providing a multiple receptacle assembly whereby a number of receptacles could be configured within a single assembly of a standard size. It is contemplated that more receptacles may be available in a particular size and width than conventional power distribution units. Additionally, in another aspect of the present disclosure, the present disclosure is directed to an apparatus for providing power for multiple types of plugs via a single receptacle. In one embodiment of the disclosure, apparatus for providing power for multiple types of plugs via a single receptacle may provide power to one of a C14 plug or a C20 plug via a single receptacle, whereby the single receptacle may be configured to operate as a C13 and C19 receptacle and in compliance with IEC60320 standards.
