ABSTRACT:
A strain relief for a power cord for electric devices includes a molded insulating body into which the power cord extends, a grounding lug extending from another side of the body and connected to the ground lead of the power cord. Grooves are provided in the sides of the body to enable the body to be assembled in a slot of the electric device, with the grounding lug of the strain relief adjacent a wall of the electric device, so that the grounding lug may be held to the wall of the device by a screw. The grounding lug may be used to function as a strain relief or auxiliary metal may be provided as a retainer. Connectors extending from the device on the portion opposite the grounding lug are adapted to be connected to leads within the electric device, the connectors being, for example, spade lugs. A fault sensing device such as an automotive fuse may be coupled to additional connectors on the body.
