An anti-theft power cord for use with electrical devices has sensors for detecting removal of the cord from an electrical receptacle and for detecting the removal of the cord from the device sought to be protected. Control systems associated with each of the sensors activate alarms when receiving signals from the sensors. The control systems, comprising microcontrollers, also communicate with one another along the power cord and will sound an alarm if the cord is cut. A battery backup system is provided to allow the power cord to function as an anti-theft device even during a power failure without sounding false alarms.

L'invention concerne un cordon d'alimentation électrique antivol destiné à des dispositifs électriques et comprenant des détecteurs servant à détecter le retrait du cordon d'une prise électrique ou d'un dispositif à protéger. Des systèmes de surveillance associés à chacun desdits détecteurs déclenchent des alarmes lorsqu'ils reçoivent des signaux en provenance des détecteurs. Ces systèmes de surveillance, et notamment des microcoontrôleurs, communiquent également les uns avec les autres par l'intermédiaire du cordon d'alimentation, et déclenchent l'alarme si ledit cordon est coupé. Un système de sauvegarde de batterie permet même au cordon d'alimentation de fonctionner comme un dispositif antivol pendant une coupure de courant sans déclencher de fausse alarme.
