A socket terminal including a shell, a pair of electrodes linked to the mains power supply and at least one pair of conductive strips for connecting a pair of leads of a device to the pair of electrodes. The pair of conductive strips in a casing rotatable between a first position and a second position relative to the pair of electrodes. The pair of conductive strips contacts the pair of electrodes when the casing in the first position. In a first embodiment, each electrode is a linear strip. Thus, the conductive strips disengage from the electrodes when the casing is in the second position. In a second embodiment, each electrode consists of a linear strip and at least one ear transversely projecting from the linear strip. Thus, the pair of conductive strips engages with the pair of linear strips of the electrodes when the casing is in the first position. The pair of conductive strips engages with the pair of ears when the casing is in the second position.
