Abstract of the Disclosure A safety plate for electrical outlets is disclosed which includes a cover plate having a pair of openings for access to the receptacles of an outlet. A pair of slidable panels with apertures for the prongs of a plug, and are mounted to the back of the cover plate and held in place by a back plate with corresponding apertures. A spring biases the panels to misalign the panel apertures from the back plate apertures, such that there is no direct opening to the electrical contacts in the receptacles. The prongs of a plug may be used to slide a panel to align the apertures to access an outlet. A raised portion on each panel fits slidably within the cover plate opening and is flush with the prong surface, so that oversize plugs may be used with the safety plate. A gasket along the back perimeter of the cover plate seals any air leaks.
