Abstract
This electrical plug-socket unit has a pair of integral, elongated, substantially rigid, electrically conductive prong-socket members embedded in a molded dielectric plastic body having several angularly disposed faces. Prong elements of the respective prong-socket members at one end project perpendicularly from one face of the dielectric body. Flat bifurcated elements at the opposite end of the respective prong-socket members are located behind another face, which has openings leading into these socket elements. Connecting segments of the prong-socket members between their prong and socket elements offset the socket elements laterally from each other and offset them angularly from the respective prong elements. In one embodiment there is a third prong-socket member in which the prong is a round ground prong that projects from the one face of the dielectric body and the socket element is a hollow member within the body. The hollow socket element is parallel to the bifurcated socket elements.
