Additional Activities
Underwriter’s knot is one of the skills needed in making an extension cord. It
is neither a joint nor a splice but a knot that is made in an extension cord. Its
purpose is to relieve the strain on small wires of the cord and binding screws of
convenience outlets and male plug.
For you to make a quality and safe output you have to strictly follow the given
procedure in making an underwriter’s knot. Below is the procedure.
