Tamper-resistant receptacles
These tamper-resistant decorator receptacles are designed to prevent children from accessing electrical outlets without inconveniencing adults or compromising appearance. The receptacles feature a UL-listed shutter system in which a thermoplastic shutter covers access to the receptacle contacts. The contacts can only be accessed with the insertion of two-bladed or grounding plugs — the insertion of a foreign object in any one side of the receptacle will not open the shutter. The receptacles are available in two versions — one with an LED nightlight and one without.
