If you need to continue a switched and unswitched source of power onward then connect the continuing black/red/white/bare cable to.....black to circuit black, red to black coming from switch, white to circuit white, bare to bare. On the continuing cable, black would be an unswitched hot, red would be a switched hot, white is a neutral, and bare ground. If this continuing cable is going to another ***half switched plug then black to one brass color screw, red to the other brass color screw, white to silver color screw, bare to box (if metallic) and to grounding screw of plug. Break off joining tab between brass color screws.

Another change to accomplish the movable light goal was making a good portion of the plugs half hot and half switched. For example, a half hot ***half switched plug in the ceiling could be used to run an overhead fluorescent light operated by a wall switch, while using the other portion of the plug to run a drop light that has its own switch. Another minor change was the addition of another 220V outlet for a total of two. This was done for the option of moving an air compressor from one location to another and, therefore, the two outlets are on one circuit. If you have more than one 220V tool to run at the same time, a separate circuit for each outlet is probably best. Remember to plan for future electrical needs such as heat and air conditioning.

1/2 turn plug


Explanation:
There is only one reference for each language in Google, and none with any clarification at all. It might be a plug that is given 1/2 turn when inserted in order to secure it so it does not fall out.
