a device that acts as a convenient source of
electrical energy for current consuming
appliances. It is where the male plug of an
appliance is inserted and usually fastened on the
wall or connected in an extension cord.

current. A flat cord is attached to it on one end and the other
end is connected toa current consuming instrument or
appliance.

 STEP 3 :

MAKE A LOOP ON TERMINAL WIRES AND

CONNECT THE WIRES TO THE TERMINAL
SCREW OF THE MALE PLUG. THE LOOP
SHOULD GO WITH THE THREAD CLOCKWISE
DIRECTION.

Extension cord is very useful in our lifestyle especially that we
almost used electronic technology in everyday living. Such using of
extension cord, we should check the capacity and durability of the
item as it could bring danger to us. Instead of buying cheap
extension cord which is beyond the electrical code standard we
can assemble it in a low cost which more safe and dependable on
daily use.
