Zusammenfassung:Systems and adaptors for electrical connection of appliances are disclosed. An electrical connection includes an appliance adaptor having an appliance adaptor body, conducting members, and at least one magnet, and a wall adaptor having a wall adaptor body, conducting prongs, conducting rings, a spring member, and at least one magnet. The electrical connection system has an uncoupled state in which the at least one appliance adaptor magnet does not magnetically couple with the at least one wall adaptor magnet, the conducting members do not electrically contact the conducting rings, and the conducting rings do not electrically contact the conducting prongs. The electrical connection system also has a coupled state in which the at least one appliance adaptor magnet magnetically couples with the at least one wall adaptor magnet, the conducting members electrically contact the conducting rings, and the conducting rings electrically contact the conducting prongs.
