Abstract: A new power plug retainer comprises a cubical or rectangular parallelepiped box having an open side and open end. Opposite the open end is a slot terminating at the open side. Outwardly extending to either side of the open end are a pair of flanges upon which a permanent or semi-permanent adhesive is coated. Optionally, a double adhesive sided foam tape may be attached to each side flange. A third outwardly extending flange may also be added to the open end adjacent the third side. This flange may also be coated with adhesive. The adhesive attachment is specifically directed to obviating the need for any mechanical fastening of the retainer to a plastic or metal cabinet or enclosure. Adjustability for different lengths of plugs is provided by an alternate version of the retainer comprising an open ended box telescopically engaging a second box with a partially closed end. The engagement includes retention means to positively retain the telescopic engagement of the two boxes.
