ABSTRACT:
A protector for electrical extension cords which are connected together by their conventional male and female members, the protector preventing unintentional disjoinder. A pair of podlike shells mate along first and second longitudinal edges, hinged on the first, with closure means mounted on the second longitudinal edge. Two pairs of prongs are integrally formed on and extend from the interior wall of one of the shells, each pair located proximate a corresponding one of distal ends of the protector. A hook is formed on each of the prongs. A pair of stretchable bands engage corresponding hooks in each pair of prongs and the cords ' plugs are introduced through them, and are joined together. They are rotated 180.degree. and the shells are closed upon one another, so that the bands twisted and entwined about the plugs urge them together. An aperture is formed in each of the distal ends of the closed protector to accomodate disposition of the cords.
