ABSTRACT:
A portable surge protection adapter includes a housing having first and second exterior faces. At least one electrical outlet is mounted in the housing. The outlet has apertures on the first exterior face which are oriented to receive the prongs of a standard electrical plug. An electrical plug mounted in the housing has at least two electrical prongs extending from the second exterior face. The prongs are prongs adapted to deliver electricity to the electrical outlet. A conditioning circuit mounted in the housing is electrically connected between the plug and the outlet. A prong cover pivots between a first position at which the prong cover encloses the prongs and a second position at which the prongs are exposed and insertable into a powered outlet. Data input and output ports are mounted in an exterior face of the prong cover. A data conditioning circuit is connected between the data input and output ports and is mounted in the prong cover.
