ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is disclosed for enabling the secure engagement of a first electrical cable having a male connector electrical contacting device to a second electrical cable having a female connector electrical contacting device. The apparatus includes a rigid body having a center region and a first and second end regions positioned at opposite ends of the center region. Each end region defines a S shaped structure having a single turn. Each end region S shaped structure has a middle section, proximal hook section and distal hook section in relationship to the center region. The middle section and proximal hook section of each end region are positioned with regard to the longitudinal axis of the center region in the same longitudinal plane. The distal hook sections of each end region are positioned in an outward extending direction in relationship to the middle and proximal hook sections and the center region in such a manner that the distal hook sections lie outside the longitudinal plane with regard to the longitudinal axis of the center region and the middle sections and proximal hook sections of the end regions.
