Abstract
An arrangement is provided for relocating a wall-mounted electrical outlet. A flexible electrical cord is mounted in a resilient, extensible housing between male and female connectors. The cord is gathered into an appropriate configuration to be extensible upon application of an axial tension force. A two-piece restrictor is slidable along and surrounds the cord in its open position or configuration. In its closed configuration, the restrictor pinches or crimps the cord to prevent transmission of remote tension force to a fixed electrical outlet. A slot in the female connector is arranged to engage an elongated member, such as a screw, protruding from the wall to hold the female connector at a predetermined position along a wall remote from a fixed outlet.
