Spider Box Projects: L5 Connector anti-theft chain link.
L5 Connector anti-theft chain link:
The goal of this design is to create a quick and simple way to lock or anchor power adapters to spiderboxes or similar distribution. I wanted to discourage/stop the average participant from stealing your adapter without creating a super permanent connection. The 1/16th cable is easily cut with dikes if someone abandons their adapter or is unable to unlock it. Someone with the right tools can quickly cut the cable.
Materials Used:1x 28" 1/16th Steel Wire Rope [$0.31 a foot, so about $0.70] 2x 1/16th Aluminum Ferrules [$1.15 per pair if buying 10 pack] 1x L5-20P Adapter, $-15R [$16-20] 2x (optional) Brady 1.5x1" Self-Laminated Vinyl Wrap Label
Tools Needed:1x Pair of Electrical Dikes (I used Linesmen Pliers, Klein Tools D213-9NE)
1x Ferrule Crimp (I cheat and use
