A locking plug for a socket (e.g micro-USB socket) of an electronic device comprises an insertable portion 14 for insertion into the socket and a handle portion 16 which remains outside of the socket. The insertable portion 14 has a plurality of electrical contacts for the transfer of electrical power and/or information. The insertable portion 14 has a wall 20 provided with an aperture 28. A locking projection is moveable between a first, locking position, in which the locking projection 76 projects outwardly of the wall 20 through the aperture 28, and a second, retracted position. A sliding locking member 56 has a first end, located in the handle portion 16, and a second end, which operates the locking projection 76. The sliding locking member 56 is slideable by operation of the first end between a first position, in which the second end locks the locking projection 76 in the first, locking position, and a second position, in which the locking projection 76 is allowed to move to the second, retracted position. |
