An adjustable, duplex receptacle containing two female receptacles and three separate electrical contacts. The first such electrical contact contains a first terminal, a first terminal screw, and a first contact plate. The second such electrical contact contains a second terminal, a second terminal screw, and a second contact plate. The third such contact contains a third terminal and a movable contact assembly. By means of a simple manual adjustment, one may change the wiring of the receptacle of this invention so that one of its outlets is converted from direct contact with a constantly hot, positive line to electrical contact with either an external switch or a secondary source of power.
