A socket and plug
assembly, comprising a socket member including a housing that confines a plug
receiver space and defining an axial direction, said socket member further including a socket face plate internal to the housing and perpendicular to the axial direction defining the depth of the plug
receiver space, further including at least four conductive prongs mounted through and projecting outwardly from said socket face into said plug
receiver space, said conductive prongs also extending oppositely in the axial direction through the non-conductive housing, said conductive prong ends extending out through said non-conducting housing permitting
electrical connection to an electrical device; and a plug member fittingly insertable into said receiver space of said mated socket member, including a non-conducting plug case having a plug face side and a
power cord side, further including at least four prong cavities open on the plug face side being in spatial communication with the number, fit, and configuration of said conductive prongs protruding from said socket face plate, including one or more internal conductive terminals captively connected within said prong cavities, said internal conductive terminals being conductively exposed inside the prong cavities, constructed and arranged to induce
electrical connection with said conductive prongs when said conductive prongs are received into said prong cavities, said internal conductive terminals projecting outwardly from the non-conducting plug case along the axial direction on the
power cord side permitting
electrical connection between the internal conductive terminals and a
power cord.
