Abstract: The invention relates to a holder device for electrical cords or flexible leads, especially in rooms for dwelling and working. The device comprises a plate (1) provided with at least one flange (2) projecting therefrom, with a coating of self-adhesive material (4) applied to the plate on the same side as the flange and downwards thereof. The holder device is intended for mounting on skirting (6) so that the flange (2) constitutes guidance and location means while applying and attaching the plate to the skirting by means of the self-adhesive coating. The portion of the plate upstanding from the flange is intended, together with the opposing wall surface (7) and the upper edge of the skirting, to form a trough-like section for laying a cord (11) and/or retaining the appropriate cord portion.
