Abstract

See full text

An electric outlet cover comprises a base plate having at least one opening and locking means, a cover plate hingedly connected to the base plate for covering an electric outlet when the outlet is not used, and at least one supporting means connected to the cover plate. The base plate is adapted to be disposed adjacent to the electric outlet so that the outlet registers with the opening for insertion of an electric plug into the outlet through the opening. The cover plate includes a closure element adapted to engage the locking means when the cover plate is placed over the base plate. The supporting means is adapted to support an insulated electric conductor when the electric plug connected to the conductor is received in the outlet so that the plug is retained in the outlet despite unintended movement of the wire.
