(57) A tamper-proof device which can be applied to boxes for supporting electrical plug-ins, comprising a first portion (1) and a second portion (2) having respectively a detectable element (18) and a sensor (20). Both portions (1,2) can be associated one another to keep a signalling circuit deactivated, the signalling circuit being activatable upon separation of these portions. One (1) of the portions (1,2) is associated with the supporting frame (4) of the plug-ins in a supporting box (6) and the other one (2) can engage the box (6) for the mutual separation of the portions (1,2) upon removal of the frame (4) from the box (6).
