A plug assembly includes a plug adapter with a front side, a back side, a first lateral side and a second lateral side. The back side has a pair of slots therein positioned adjacent to and extending along one of the first and second lateral sides such that flanges are defined. A pair of male plugs is attached to and extends away from the front side. Each of a plurality of cords has a female plug coupler electrically attached thereto and adapted for selectively coupling with one of the flanges such that the cords extend laterally away from the plug adapter. A plurality of electrical contacts is mounted in the slot and on the female plug couplers for electrically coupling the female plug couplers to the plug adapter. The electrical contacts in the slots are electrically coupled to an associated one of the male plugs.
