ABSTRACT:
A safety cover plate for covering an electric socket includes an external plate member with an opening aligned with the receptacle. The sliding plates are slidably mounted to the inside of the external plate member to shield the opening of the external plate member. A biasing member is provided to urge the sliding plates to engage and shield the opening. The sliding plates are mounted between two rails. A notch misaligned with the slots of the receptacle is formed on one of the sliding plates so that a user can separate the two sliding plates from each other and insert a plug into the receptacle.
