Abstract

See full text

A power-socket variable location system and method provide one or more variably-locatable electrical sockets and data connection points along a wall to enable pins of an electrical plug to be inserted at selectively variable locations along the wall to obtain electrical power. An elongate-electrical-conductor is located along the wall. A conductor-enclosure encases the electrical-conductor to prevents inadvertent contact between a user and the electrically-live conductor inside. One or more power-sockets each have pin-to-conductor-conduction-means that are able to electrically link the elongate-electrical-conductor to pins of an electrical plug inserted into the power-socket. The power-sockets can be selectively attached at any location along the conductor-enclosure such that when the pins of an electrical plug are inserted into the power-sockets, an electrical connection is made between the pins and the power source through the pin-to-conductor-conduction-means and via the elongate-electrical-conductor. One or more data connection points are able to be selectively attached at substantially any location along the conductor-enclosure.
