ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR HOLD-DOWN ADAPTOR Abstract of the Invention: An apparatus for releasably securing mating electrical connectors is presented which employs a bracket having an apertured portion which is sized and shaped to circumscribe the mating portions of the connectors. In a first embodiment, the bracket has a pair of opposed arm portions extending therefrom with at least one slot centrally located on one of the arms and a pair of opposed open ended slots on the other arm. A self-locking strap is secured to the centrally located slot. In use, after the bracket has been placed on the first connector and the mating connector is joined thereto, the self-locking strap will be wound tightly around the mating connector through the two open-ended slots; and locked to itself to thereby retain the connectors in the engaged condition. The connectors may be disengaged merely by applying sufficient force to the strap so as to unlock it from itself. In a second embodiment, the bracket includes a pair of opposed arm portions extending therefrom with at least one slot centrally located on one of the arms and a pair of mating opposed closed slots on the other arm. A forked self-locking strap is attached to each of the pair of opposed slots and looped through the single closed slot on the opposing side as a means for securing the mated connector.
