Abstract
A set of two locking devices for permanently securing in place a detachable socket of an electric power supply cable and for preventing access to the electric plug on the opposite end of the cable. Both devices are locked by the same key which is used for tightening bolts on the locking device of the socket and for locking a box-like enclosure around the plug. The set is intended for preventing access of unauthorized individuals to electric appliances, instruments and devices. It is also intended for limiting access by children to electric appliances, as well as to television and video games in the absence of parental supervision.
