Abstract
A quadruplex receptacle where all four receptacles can be connected in common to a single electrical cable or by severing the connecting links on its line bus it can be divided into two duplex receptacles each fed by a single cable. A feed-through arrangement can be used with either arrangement of the line bus. The neutral bus surrounds the line bus, both supported and electrically insulated from one another by a series of tabs and columns in the cavity within a housing. A ground bus extending into the cavity from a rear cover provides an isolated ground. Mounting apertures in the housing and cover permit mounting to a support surface, to a standard gang gem outlet box, or by means of an adapter plate to a number of mounting devices. A box can be placed about the cover to provide a portable device.
