    Abstract: Safety power outlet connected to a plurality of power lines, including a hot line, and arranged to receive the prongs of a matching multipronged power plug has a receive terminal connected to each power line. The receive terminal is arranged to receive a corresponding prong of the power plug which upon insertion into the terminal operates a switch associated with each terminal. All switches are connected in series, and upon complete insertion of all the prongs, the series connected switches complete a power connection from the hot line to its respective prong, which in turn provides power to the external circuit connected to the power plug.
