Abstract
An electrical receptacle provides a plurality of outlets that are in different orientations. The electrical receptacle has a housing having a plurality of openings formed therein which are also referred to as contact openings, with each outlet having three contact openings. Each such outlet has a contact opening that is common with another outlet, meaning that a contact opening of one outlet and a contact opening of another outlet are actually an individual contact opening that is common to the two outlets and is thus shared therebetween. The electrical receptacle additionally includes a thermally protected metal oxide varistor (TMOV) that employs a thermal fuse and a metal oxide varistor (MOV) in order to protect electrical devices that are connected with the electrical receptacle from damage due to extended surges and spikes.
