Abstract: A rotatable electrical plug and power cord for mating with a conventional electrical outlet comprises a housing first portion and a housing second portion rotatably coupled to the housing first portion. The housing first portion carries first and second electrically conductive outlet prongs extend from the housing first portion a sufficient distance to permit the prongs to engage into an electrical outlet. The housing second portion is connected to the proximal end of a power cord such that the power cord can rotate relative to the prongs. The power has a pair of electrical conductors extending between its proximal and distal ends. A flexible conductor means electrically interconnects the power cord conductors with the respective prongs and permits the housing first portion to rotate relative to the housing second portion without imparting forces on the power cord conductors.

Abstract: A wall mountable electrical socket for securement in an opening formed in a plasterboard wall. The socket includes a wall plate having a central opening with a rearwardly extending cylindrical member, and a plug housing insertable through the opening. Guide slots in the cylindrical member guide the housing to a position of locking engagement. During insertion, the housing cams tine members of the cylindrical member into piercing engagement with the wall.
