Hey Harvey!
Definitely a valid question - I'd hate to invest in something and run the risk of something happening to it.
The Portable Power Watchdog Surge Protector # HU42VR has a loop at the bottom of the door that covers the connection so you can lock your power cord to the protector.
An alternative to this is to use the hardwire version of the Power Watchdog Surge Protector # HU77FR which installs on the inside of your trailer as opposed to the outside.
