Abstract
A power converter includes a transforming unit having pins outwardly projecting from the transforming unit, and a socket. An adapter in the power converter includes a first plug mounted on a first side of the adapter, and a second plug mounted on a second side of the adapter, wherein the socket on the transforming unit receives the first plug or the second plug. Pin cavities on the first side of the adapter, opposite to the second plug, provide a contact to receive the pins to allow the transformer unit to convert an input voltage to an output voltage. Pin cavities on the second side of the adapter, opposite to the first plug, provide a contact to receive one of the pins of the transformer unit to allow the transformer to convert the input voltage to the output voltage.
