What are outlet plates?

Outlet Plates

Outlet plates are a good safety outlet cover to use for items that you plug in frequently. This special plate actually replaces your existing outlet cover. The way that outlet plates work is that they block off the open outlet with a little sliding door, which moves into place as soon as you remove the plug. This is a good choice for vacuums, curling irons and hair driers.
