ABSTRACT:
A rotating two blade plug and grounding post adapter includes a housing including a top and bottom coupled to freely rotate about a rotary cap disposed between the housing top and bottom. Right and left electrical spades and a grounding post extend from the rotary cap and a receptacle integral to the periphery of the housing accepts a two blade and grounding plug that may be oriented at a wall receptacle by rotating the adapter housing and receptacle to a desired orientation. Internal flanges define grooves in which rotary electrical contacts are maintained through rotation of the housing and integral receptacle.
