Abstract
An electrical adaptor. The adaptor includes a plug body with a plurality of plugs each having different plug configurations. Each of the plugs is movable between an extended position, with the plug extending through the outer wall of the plug body, and a retracted position, with the plug being substantially retracted behind the outer wall. The adaptor also includes an actuator coupled to the plug body. The actuator is rotatable relative to the plug body to move the plugs between the extended and retracted positions.
