Abstract

In an appliance having first and second surfaces which are joined to form an enclosure or housing therefor, a strain relief for a power cord is integrally formed therewith. The strain relief includes a pair of posts extending from the first surface for receiving the power cord thereon and a post extending from the second surface. When the surfaces are joined, the second surface post engages, deforms and holds the power cord in a path formed by the first and second surface posts.
