A connector restraint device is disclosed for restraining electrical wire end connectors plugged into connectors installed in a wall of an electrical equipment enclosure, and for tying down electrical wires attached to the electrical wire end connectors. The loop is rotatably retained within a vertical rack housing and is driven by a motor, disposed within the housing, under user control such that the loop is rotated until a desired CD is moved to the top region of the belt. The actuating member is configured to actuate the electronically actuatable door latch when the actuating member is pushed in an outboard direction.
