ABSTRACT:
A power cord removal prevention device, for use with a power cord plug in preventing inadvertent removal of the power cord plug from an outlet that is mounted in a wall. The device has a bridge having a clamp which selectively creates an opening which can secure the power cord therein. A pair of suction cups are attached to the bridge by perpendicular members. The suction cups attach to the wall and divert any tension in the power cord away from the plug and toward the wall.
