Abstract
An electrical plug assembly including a plug housing, a ground pin and a first power blade projecting from the surface of the plug housing; and a power socket disposed within the plug housing. The surface defines an aperture surrounding the power socket. The assembly further includes an adapter plate including a second power blade having a first portion projecting from a first surface and a second portion projecting from an opposed second surface. Ground pin and first power blade apertures extend through the adapter plate. The second portion of the second power blade is received within the power socket and the ground pin and the first power blade are received within the ground pin and first power blade apertures respectively. The ground pin and the first power blade each project from the first surface of the adapter plate. The adapter plate allows the plug assembly to meet NEMA 5-15P or 6-20P standards.
