Abstract

A line power cord voltage-magnitude adaptor is described herein. In a particular embodiment of the present invention, the power plug, line cord, and adaptor plug are pre-assembled as one component of the electrical equipment system; various voltage requirements can thus be prepared-for, whereby the equipment need not be altered, regardless of the eventual market for the equipment. The present invention can be used with virtually all kinds of electrical equipment energized by AC power, including computer systems.
