Abstract
An electrical receptacle containing a multiple number of pin-type connectors, wherein the receptacle housing is a tubular metal member susceptible to manufacture by low cost screw machine procedures. Most surfaces of the metal member are centered on the tube axis, except that a circular flange on the member has a localized flat surface machined thereon for anti-rotation lock action. The receptacle is designed to be secured in place by a concealed nut for protection against theft or vandalism.
