Unlock key for locked type E and F power sockets (DATA sockets)

Description

Unlock key for locked power sockets, like the one in the picture. That type of socket is sometimes refereed to as DATA socket. These type of sockets are usually used to deter people from plugging devices to surge protected outlets. I only tested it with type E power sockets and plugs, but there is high chance it might work with type F sockets and plugs too. Usage: You can either put the key onto the power plug, and then put both inside the socket at the same time, or put the key inside the socket first and then insert the plug into the socket thru the key. For removing the key from the socket i suggest adding a short piece of string. It doesn't interfere with anything, but it makes removing process way easier. You can also put a bit of double sided tape to the key and attach it to the power plug. Print with 100% infill. This is my very own design which i made by trial and error. It seems to unlock sockets reasonably well and be durable enough, but i don't give any guarantees it will work with every locked socket. Use at your own risk. I'm not responsible for any damage or electric shocks caused by keys breaking inside the sockets.
