Abstract:
A method of neatly retaining cords, such as electrical cords, in a box, such as a surge protector, utilizes a brace member and two inverted-L-shaped members. The brace member can be mounted on the bottom of the box, so that the two inverted-L-shaped members extend upwards from the bottom of the box. A cord can then be neatly wrapped around the two inverted-L-shaped members, with the horizontal prong of each inverted-L-shaped member holding the cord in place so that it does not uncoil. One of the inverted-L-shaped members is movable along the brace member, to properly accommodate various lengths of cord. Multiple cord retainers may be mounted in a surge protector or other power cord box, each one suitable for neatly retaining a separate electrical cord.
