Abstract

The electrical outlet faceplate with electrical cord cleat is a cleat plate that is for use with an electrical outlet faceplate. The cleat plate is a structure around which a cable can be secured such that the cable will not be disconnected or damaged inadvertently. The electrical outlet faceplate with electrical cord cleat is attached by a hinge to the electrical outlet faceplate allowing the cleat plate to be rotated to a position perpendicular to the electrical face plate while the cleat plate is in use and allowing the cleat plate to be rotated to a closed position flush to the electrical outlet faceplate when the cleat plate is not in use. The electrical outlet faceplate with electrical cord cleat includes an outlet faceplate, a cleat plate, and a hinge.
