Window compatible electrical power device

Abstract

A device that supplies electrical current to various outdoor locations via through-hole areas of building structures, such as window frames, door openings, etc. which includes a flatten portion with a male electrical outlet plug coupled to one end and one or more female electrical outlet(s) coupled to the other end. The male electrical outlet plug and/or the one or more female electrical outlet(s) can be coupled to the flattened portion by an electrical cord. The flattened portion includes two or more flat electrical conductors. A further embodiment is built into the structure of a window or the structure of a window frame and provides an interior accessible male electrical outlet plug (or electrical cord) and an accessible exterior female electrical outlet that are coupled together by wiring that extends through the window or window frame and optionally through a tube.
