Gadgets to prevent power switches from being switched off by special-needs teen

http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_odkw=Child-safe+gElectric+plug&_osacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p2045573.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.XChild-safe+Electric+plug.TRS0&_nkw=Child-safe+Electric+plug&_sacat=0

I'm not looking for the above which prevents toddlers from putting their fingers into the holes of the power sockets.

Rather my special-needs autist teen likes to go around switching my TV, broadband router & fridge power switches
off : hard to train him not to do it so I'm looking for something/gadgets that will cover these power switches.

For car seat belt, I managed to find something from Amazon which prevents him from releasing his seat belts;  
any item from Amazon & eBay to help with this issue?

Found one that is not clear (see through) .... but rather than a screw fastening the cover it has a simple push latch which he may quickly solve and be able to open it.

The UK sockets are what's being used at my place.

My autist teen is certainly not smart & the items Eirman/Michael suggests wud work but I'll need to do
some sort of drilling to install those covers?  I'm not too good with drillings really.
