A power cord retainer for retaining a plug portion of an electrical cord in an electrical socket mounted to a chassis. The retainer includes a pair of resilient, self supporting posts, each one having a distal end configured for affixation to positions of the chassis on opposing sides of the socket and a pair of shoulders, each one affixed to a proximal end of a corresponding one of the pair of posts. The pair of shoulders are configured to form a grove along adjacent inner sides thereof. The groove is axially aligned with the socket. The groove is configured to receive the power cord when the posts are in a stretched position. The shoulders are configured to engage a rear portion of the plug portion and, together with the forces provided by the pair of posts when such posts are enabled to return to an un-stretched position, retain such plug in the socket.
