Abstract

An exemplary plug assembly includes an accepting assembly and a power plug which is detachably inserted into the accepting assembly. The power plug includes a base body and an inserting assembly. The base body includes at least two blades with a specification adapted to a socket providing external AC power. The base body includes two conductive pads electrically connected to the blades. The inserting assembly includes a plug cover and two conductive connecting blades fixed to an inserting portion of the plug cover, the plug cover being detachably mounted to the base body. The accepting assembly includes a charger cover and two conductive pins fixed to an accepting portion of the charger cover. Each conductive connecting blade comprises a first conductive contact portion electrically connected to the conductive pad and a second conductive contact portion electrically connected to the conductive pin.
