Stop Getting Unplugged

Power cords were made to be plugged in and unplugged at will. In fact, controlling when and how electricity is conducted using power cords is one of humanity’s greatest inventions. However, not all electrical operations go as planned. Power cords get unintentionally unplugged all the time—accidental tripping, moving equipment, vibrations, you name it. Maybe you’ve accepted accidental unplugging as a fact of life. But it doesn’t have to be!

With patented Auto-Lock® power cords from Quail Electronics Inc., you can trust your devices and equipment to stay plugged in—until you decide to unplug them. These power cords feature internal locking mechanisms and sliding tabs that keep power cords securely in place. Maintain control over your machinery with an Auto-Lock® power cord.

Why Choose Locking Power Cords?

Accidentally unplugged power cords are an inconvenience at best and a severe problem at worst. From a draining laptop to disconnected critical equipment like servers or medical machines, ensuring power cords stay plugged in is crucial for successful electrical operations.

There have been many attempts at developing solutions to help keep cords plugged in. Perhaps you’ve even attempted a few yourself—taping cords in place, knotting them together, or purchasing longer cords for extra slack. But none have the same success rate and reliability as Auto-Lock® power cords.

Our locking power cords feature built-in locking mechanisms on the connectors to prevent accidental disconnections. To unplug, simply pull the sliding mechanisms on either side of the connector. Auto-Lock® power cords were designed to keep your cables securely in place, even when pulled or tugged. Unplug cables on your terms with locking power cords!

The Auto-Lock®: Guaranteeing a Steadfast Connection

C14_C19_5287Some people have two left feet.  I believe that I have two left feet and a third invisible foot that exists only to trip me in very important moments. It’s an issue. During my senior prom, while showing off my signature Hammer moves, I tripped and unplugged the DJ booth and all of the lights, resulting in complete darkness and silence for about ten minutes. In college, while rushing to finish a project, I tripped over a power cord in the computer lab which turned off every single computer, resulting in a sprint for my life as a mob of caffeinated procrastinators chased me through the quad at 3 am. I have ruined countless presentations, proposals, and parties.

For some industries, the importance of maintaining constant power is far more important than my two left feet. Hospitals need to ensure that power can be supplied to operating room machinery seamlessly. Storage facilities need to supply power to all of their mainframes. The OEM marketplace is well aware of the necessity of power supply. But how do you guarantee this?
