if your strip has the screw mounts on the bottom as most do, i would just put screws in for one end and let the other side hang so that gravity will hold it in place.

Why not just put a plastic tie around it and clamp it on one of the corners

stick it back up with gaffer tape then stick a nail part the way in on both sides of the tape it will hold it till you get a chance for a more permanent solution

I am talking about the zip ties as they will lock down and can be clipped off when needed. can attach two together if you only have small ones

not usually. Use the zip ties like mentioned above, also, can you drill a small hole thru the box where you want the zip tie to connect to, to hold it in place. Or if your wires are long enough run the wires outside the box and place the power bar outside the box, some options for you

tack 2 nails on the bottom of the power strip.
then 2 more on either side to just hold it in place. just be creative and think about what your trying to achieve. in this case all u want is for it to stay where u want it...
