The housing (1) is further provided with an AC/DC converter for converting the AC power into DC, and exposed DC terminals (6) are provided on a side of said housing (1) that is substantially perpendicular to the side of the housing (1) that is provided with the AC power plug (2). The dimensions of the housing (1) are such that the distance from the side provided with the exposed DC terminals (6) to its opposed side is substantially less than the extent of the housing (1) in any direction in a plane parallel with said side. <IMAGE>
