There are numerous "wall sockets", including some early ones in which you had to screw in the plug like a light bulb. This was partly because electricity cost more if you weren't running it through a light fixture, and people figured out how to plug other appliances into light-bulb sockets.
Two-pin models were not far behind.
Early inventors include TT Smith (1883 England), Binswanger (1895), Hubbell (1904), Schuko (1926), and the modern, American, two-blade with ground by Labre (1928 patent).

Where are the spark plugs located on a 1994 geo prizm?
AnswerThey are inside the valve cover. Looking from the front of the car you will see the spark plug wires routing from the distributor cap to each plug. To change the plugs remove the spark plug wire and use a spark plug socket attached to an extension. I recommend adding some duct tape to the socket/extension connection to prevent the socket from coming off in the valve cover.

Take off the gas cap. Take off the big plastic cover with a socket and wrench.Then put the gas cap back on. Then pull of the spark plug boot. Then take off the spark plug with a spark plug socket and wrench. It should be 13/16" socket with 3/8" drive wrench. I Think the spark plug gap is 0.025 but you would have to look at a manual.
