- **Break-in** - a female **socapex** connector with 6x male **edisons**. Often on an order to "feed" a socapex run from an Edison ratpac or from a **lunch box**
-**Break-out** - a male **socapex** connector with 6x female **edisons**. Often found dangling behind set walls or in the air providing power for lights. Often this is used for dim lines, but can just as well be used for **hard power**. Thank goodness there are [[Color]] standards to differentiate.
