Abstract
A receptacle for providing electrical power to an electrical power plug comprises a circuit selector for selecting one of several electrical circuits available to supply the receptacle. The circuit selector is electrically connected to a power terminal assembly, adapted for engagement with at least one power plug, through at least one flexible jumper. The flexible jumper enables the circuit selector to be moved to a preselected position for engagement with mating terminals corresponding to the selected circuit, through flexural movement of the jumpers.
