ABSTRACT:
A new and improved electrical receptacle comprising a light permeable housing, electrical outlets mounted in the housing, and illuminating means disposed interiorly of the housing. In an alternatively preferred arrangement, a stand pivotally attached to the receptacle housing is adapted to elevate the receptacle thereby affording protection against short circuits due to excessive moisture on the floor. In yet another alternatively preferred arrangement, a second pivotal attachment on the housing is effective to prevent the inadvertent disconnection of electrical cords plugged into the housing.
