Sagging power plugs in wall outlet, diy


Does anyone have any diy advice on how to support heavy power plugs that sag from the wall outlet? I have Shunyata cords and I also have Shunyata's SR-Z1 outlet. However the power plugs still sag. Shunyata sells the Cable Cradle, which is the perfect fix, but I feel like there must be some diy alternative.

@erik_squires Thanks…I was thinking the same about the 90 degree plug as the solution.  The locking plugs are interesting but not audiophile quality and only go down to 14 ga.  Also, no explanation and not clear how they actually lock 🤔

For loose power plugs going into components you wrap the connector with a couple wraps of Teflon tape (plumbers tape).  Just the plastic part.  Problem solved.

Just get a piece of wood, cut it to length, and place it underneath the PC to release the stress of the weight on the plugs.  It doesn’t matter what outlet you get, the weight of the PC will cause it to droop unless you prop it up with something.
