ABSTRACT:
A connector for temporarily securing electrical cords in an end-to-end relationship to prevent accidental disconnection comprising an elongated, substantially planar member having a flexible tab integrally formed in a one end of the elongated member, the flexible member and the end of the flexible member defining a pair of cord openings on opposite sides of the tab, with the openings sufficiently large to permit passage of an electrical cord through each of the openings and around the flexible tab with the flexible tab having sufficient support to prevent the flexible tab from disengaging from the cord under normal pressure that does not rupture the cord yet yield to release the cord if pressure is sufficient that it might rupture the cord.
