Extension Cables - keeping connected

We use PWM extension cables for motors on manipulators that get moved around quite a bit. We've found that the cables have a tendency to come unplugged (not enough friction), and we've been using scotch or masking tape to keep them together, which is illegal. We've tried anchoring the cables down using zipties, which are clumsy and not as effective as tape. Does anyone have a better solution that's FVC legal? The cables are long enough, with no tension (except gravity) on them.
