Abstract
A set of grounded and isolated duplex electrical receptacle assemblies includes interchangeable dual female bodies, interchangeable socket bases, interchangeable right, left and middle contact members, and interchangeable support bridges for assembling either a grounded or an isolated receptacle assembly. In the isolated assembly, an insulator plate is fitted between the support bridge and the middle contact member to electrically isolate one from another to thereby prevent electrical engagement therewith.
