ABSTRACT:
An electrical outlet device includes an enclosure that contains one or more electrical outlets. The enclosure has a top surface, a bottom surface, and a side surface extending from the top surface to the bottom surface and forming an enclosure perimeter. The device further includes a cavity extending into the side surface of the enclosure and configured for receiving an electrical power cord that attaches inside of the enclosure perimeter. A top end of the power cord attaches to the enclosure inside the cavity and drops vertically downward from the enclosure. A top surface, front end, and sides of the enclosure extend around a front and sides of the top end of the power cord. The unique shape also allows a wider variety of power transformer shapes to be plugged into the enclosure at the same time.
