ABSTRACT:
An extendible and retractable electrical extension cord device is disclosed, which includes a housing adapted to be secured to a wall of a structure, and a reel mounted in the housing for rotation. An extension cord is wound about the reel, and has a first plug end in the housing and a second plug end extending outwardly through the housing and winding relative to the reel upon rotation thereof in a first direction, and unwinding relative to the reel upon rotation thereof in a second direction. An electric-powered drive assembly is mounted in the housing and is movable between an active condition rotating the reel in the first direction and an inactive condition permitting the reel to rotate freely in at least the second direction.
