The invention discloses an electrical plug and socket. The socket is an elongated body made of rigid non-conductive material with two or three grooves along its body. A conductor connected to a power source passes inside, along and through every groove. This socket has at least one "station" for insertion or removal of the plug which is located along said socket. The plug is comprised of e cover and a body both made from non-conductive rigid material. Two or three rigid conductive bodies are located at the underbody of the plug and connected to an electrical cable passing through the cover. Said conductive bodies are contoured and located such that they fit for entry, sliding and grasping of the socket's grooves while continuously touching the sockets conductors inside said grooves. The advantage of the particular feature of the plug end socket according to the invention is that it minimizes the risk o electrocution by preventing foreign bodies from being inserted and touching the electric conductors.
