Electrical switch and outlet design that can be safely replaced with the power on and without tools

A modular electrical socket component system to be electrically connected to a structure's electrical wiring, said component system comprising:

• a universal grounded connector having a housing, said universal grounded connector being connected to said structure's electrical wiring to deliver standard electrical power to said component system,
• said housing of said universal connector having a rear surface with electrical terminals connected to said structure's electrical wiring,
• said connector further comprising a female receptacle connected to said housing,
• said female receptacle connected with said electrical terminals to provide electrical power at said female receptacle,
• said structure's electrical power being connected to said electrical terminals to block accessibility of consumers to said structure's electrical wiring,
• said modular component comprising a male plug to fit in said female receptacle,
• and a lifting system connected to said housing for capturing said modular component and guiding said male plug into and out of said female receptacle to make electrical contact therebetween or to eject said male plug therefrom, said lifting system positively urging said male plug into or out of said female receptacle, said lifting system locking said male plug in place in said female receptacle and ejecting said male plug from said female receptacle by manual pressure applied to said lifting system to perform either of said functions of connecting or disconnecting said male plug and female receptacle,
• said female receptacle being integrally formed with said electrical terminals,
• said modular component has a front and a rear, said male plug being located at said rear of said modular component,
• said electrical power being connected to said electrical terminals at said rear surface of said housing, and
• wherein the distance between said front and said rear of said modular component comprises its depth, wherein said housing has a depth sufficient to enable the front of said modular component to be substantially in the same plane as the wall in which said system is located.
