Secure Today, Safe Tomorrow
In Chicago, electrical outlet safety solutions are essential for integrating the city’s historical charm with modern safety standards. As Chicago upgrades its infrastructure, these safety solutions become increasingly crucial in maintaining the city’s iconic architecture. They significantly enhance the safety of residential and commercial spaces, offering peace of mind to a community that values both its heritage and innovation. The implementation of these advanced safety features is key for Chicago’s ongoing development, allowing the city to respect its past while embracing future-focused safety practices.
Safety Receptacles allow access to power based on the size and shape of standard plug blades. They will not allow access to power by two foreign objects as do the US mandated TR receptacles.
Safety Receptacles have no rejection problem and work just like non-safety receptacles.
Our receptacles are designed to be compatible with standard electrical boxes and wiring.
If you are a manufacturer or distributor looking for innovative products to bring to market, we invite you to consider our Safety Receptacles. The patented designs of our Safety Receptacles greatly increase safety and solve the rejection problem of the presently mandated TR receptacles. They return the plug-in experience to that of the old non-safety receptacles.
Because of the increased safety over the TR receptacles, a first mover to market Safety Receptacles could also reap the benefit of a change in mandate by the US Electrical Code to the Safety Receptacles.

Chicago’s blend of modern and historic architectures offers a prime market for electrical outlet safety solutions. Implementing electrical outlet safety solutions caters to a city that values safety without sacrificing design. Chicago’s push for safer living spaces creates a demand for innovative electrical outlet safety solutions. The opportunity to lead the market with electrical outlet safety solutions in Chicago is significant, especially with increasing awareness of electrical safety. These electrical outlet safety solutions can set a new standard in a city known for its architectural innovation.
Unlike US Electrical Code mandated Tamper Resistant receptacles which use shutters over the power blade slots that can be easily opened by two small objects, patented Safety Receptacles prevent access to power by foreign objects based on the size and shape characteristics of standard plug blades. This greatly increases the margin of safety and reduces the risk of electrocution, even when multiple foreign objects are pressed into the plug blade slots.
Safety Receptacles have the approximately the same dimensions of standard receptacles, making them easy to replace standard receptacles. They restore the plug insertion experience to that of the old non-safety receptacles, and are without shutters over the blade slots that can cause rejection.
The US Electrical Code requires special outlets called “Tamper Resistant receptacles” in new buildings and renovations supposedly to improve safety, but this website shows that they do very little to improve safety. They are good at stopping the insertion of one foreign object into a receptacle, but with two such objects the shutters are easily opened. In this website we show that you can stick one object into any receptacle near the floor and not get a shock as long as you do not touch the receptacle cover screw at the same time (it is electrically connected to ground). Replacing that screw with a plastic screw would make the old non-safety receptacles just as safe as Tamper Resistant receptacles. The real danger is sticking two foreign objects into the blade slots which can lead to electrocution. The Tamper Resistant receptacle’s shutters are easily opened by two such objects. Our patented Safety Receptacles are not so opened. They are safer and more convenient to use than the Tamper Resistant receptacles, which are disliked by most of those that have them. We are seeking to sell or license the patents to a company or entrepreneur who will manufacture and market the Safety Receptacles.
