Oyaide's single screw per polarity method eliminates the removable bridge that split duplex capable AC outlets feature. A split duplex capable AC outlet's bridge enables the two sockets to be electrically divided in order to connect separate AC wirings such as one socket wired for your audio system, and the other socket wired to a switch at the wall to turn a lamp on and off (switchable outlet). An unsubstantial electrical bridge of this type is bad enough, furthermore, it’s scored to be easily bent-off (for a split duplex configuration), and as such is considered by some folks (and I concur) to degrade the performance of the bridged socket, so Oyaide actually designed a superior audio/video AC outlet when two component's power cords are plugged into an Oyaide duplex AC outlet (both sockets connected to a common line).
