Patent ID: 8292657

Claim:
A portable electrical power box, comprising: a housing; a cable having three electrically conducting wires, the cable extending from the housing, the three wires including a first wire being a neutral wire, a second wire adapted for carrying a first split voltage with respect to the neural first wire, and a third wire adapted for carrying a second split voltage with respect to the neural first wire; a high voltage electrical plug having three prongs adapted for insertion into a corresponding receptacle of a split phase high voltage power source, the three wires of the cable being electrically connected to the three prongs of the plug; a first pair of voltage receptacles disposed on a first portion of the housing; a second pair of voltage receptacles disposed on an opposite portion of the housing; and first and second switches electrically connected to circuitry of said first and second pairs of voltage receptacles, said first and said second switches selectively energizing said first and second pairs of voltage receptacles to supply electrical power therefrom; wherein the neutral wire is routed and electrically connected to a common non-electrically hot side of the first and second pairs of voltage receptacles in the housing; wherein the second wire is routed and electrically connected to an electrically hot side of the first pair of voltage receptacles; wherein the third wire is routed and electrically connected to an electrically hot side of the second pair of voltage receptacles; and wherein said high voltage electrical plug further comprises a high voltage ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) having dual test buttons, dual test lights, and dual reset buttons, wherein the dual test buttons, dual test lights, and dual reset buttons, respectively, being configured for testing, indicating, and resetting an associated 120-Volt output of the first and second pair of voltage receptacles.
