Abstract
An adapter includes a first plug with at least one electrically conductive prong, a first socket shaped to make an electrical connection when a second plug is secured to the first socket, an electrically conductive pathway that connects the first plug with the first socket, and a filtering mechanism disposed along the electrically conductive pathway that modifies an electrical waveform signature sufficient that it avoids nuisance tripping by an arc fault detector when the electrically conductive pathway provides electrical power to an electrical load.
