Surge Guard Universal Lock ??

I'm a little confused with this Surge Guard Universal Lock. Looks to me like if someone wanted to steal it just unplug it from the power post and then unplug the 50 Amp cable from the trailer and walk off with it.
Or am I missing something here??

    I think you got it. The surge guard is only as secure as the power cord.

    I used an older model lock and was able to run a security cable through the lock and around the post. Looks like you may be able to do that with the newer lock by running the cable through the large holes.

    Just get a cable lock like for a bike, with loops on the end. Wrap the post, etc, then lock the ends using the same lock as on the guard. ST
