The present invention relates to an apparatus to provide a secure connection between the male plug and female receptacle on adjoining electrical cords which prevents the plug from separating from the receptacle by forcing the plug and the receptacle together. The apparatus comprises a pair of opposing body portions, each of said body portions having an interior and an exterior end. The body portions preferably consist of a pair of co-axial cones with generally flat opposing bases. A centrally disposed longitudinal conduit is provided through said body potions and opens on said interior and exterior ends of said body portions. Elastic means link said body portions so that said body portions are biased towards each other when said elastic means is stretched to separate the body potions. The elastic means preferably comprise a plurality of lining members attaching the interior ends of said body portions. The lining members are preferably equip-spaced about the periphey of the interior ends of said body portions wherein the generally flat opposing faces of said body portions are maintained in contact with said male plug and female receptacle. The linking members are preferably integrally molded with the body portions. Means are provided to permit said electrical cords to be inserted into the longitudinal conduits in said body potions such that the male plug and female receptacle are contained between the body portions to prevent separation of the male plug and female receptacle. The means preferably consists of a longitudinal slit in said body potions.
