Coverplate and method for electrical outlet

A coverplate for attachment to a standard electric power outlet having two electric power elements separated by a standard distance, the coverplate comprising:

• a faceplate occupying a first imaginary plane and defining at least one opening sized to provide access to the standard electric power outlet when the power outlet is covered by the faceplate;
• a support frame detachably attached to the faceplate, the support frame comprising:
• a U-shaped element occupying a second imaginary plane parallel with the first imaginary plane;
• a first receptor flange extending from the U-shaped element, the first receptor flange defining a first chamber,
• a second receptor flange extending from the U-shaped element, the second receptor flange defining a second chamber,
• a first conductor positioned within the first chamber;
• a second conductor positioned within the second chamber;
• wherein the first conductor and the second conductor are spaced apart by a first distance which is equal to the standard distance on the standard electric power outlet.
