Abstract

A power outlet device including a outer element, a light indicating element and a outlet module is provided. The outer element has a first portion and at least one second portion. The first portion is configured out of the second portion. At least one first through hole is configured in the second portion. The first portion and the second portion are opaque portions. The light indicating element has at least one lighting set corresponding to one second portion. Each lighting set has at least one lighting unit. Each lighting unit is configured in the inner periphery of each first through hole of the second portion. The light indicating element is configured in the outlet module, and the outer element is configured on the light indicating element. Wherein, each lighting unit is exposed from the corresponding first through hole.
