Abstract: The invention relates to power sockets and, more particularly, relates to universal power sockets capable of receiving, and electrically engaging with, different types of plugs having pins. Even more particularly, the invention relates to a universal power socket having sprung contacts. There are universal adapters already in existence, however some are unable to connect accurate and stably with a plug.

My invention has resolved all of these problems, something which has never previously been done. The creation of my universal adapter has enabled the use of only one clasp in order to hold 9 different pins. It is accurate and will hold power plugs stably in place, with the convenience of being able to connect to a majority of power plugs worldwide.
