5. ການຕິດຕັ້ງແລະການຕິດຕັ້ງ

Follow these steps to safely install the ELEGRP replacement plug or connector onto your extension cord.

1. ກະກຽມສາຍ: Carefully cut the damaged end of your extension cord. Using a wire stripper, remove approximately 1 inch of the outer jacket from the cord. Then, strip about 1/2 inch of insulation from each of the three inner wires (Hot, Neutral, Ground).
2. Disassemble the Plug/Connector: Unscrew the single screw on the housing of the ELEGRP plug or connector and separate the two halves.
3. ກະ​ທູ້​ສາຍ: Slide the outer housing piece onto the prepared extension cord. Ensure it is oriented correctly so it can be reassembled later.
4. ເຊື່ອມຕໍ່ສາຍ:
   • Twist the strands of each wire tightly.
   • Identify the terminals: The ທອງເຫຼືອງ screw is for the ຮ້ອນ wire (usually black). The ເງິນ screw is for the ເປັນກາງ wire (usually white). The ສີຂຽວ screw is for the ດິນ wire (usually green or bare copper).
   • Loosen the terminal screws. Wrap each wire clockwise around its corresponding screw terminal and tighten securely. Ensure no stray wire strands are present.
5. ການບັນເທົາຄວາມເຄັ່ງຕຶງທີ່ປອດໄພ: The internal design provides a strain relief mechanism. Ensure the conductor is wrapped around the brass contact for additional strain relief before fully tightening the terminal screws.
6. ການ​ປະ​ກອບ​ທີ່​ຢູ່​ອາ​ໄສ​: Carefully align the two halves of the plug or connector housing, ensuring all wires are tucked inside and not pinched. Secure the housing by tightening the single screw.

6. ຄໍາແນະນໍາການດໍາເນີນງານ

Once the ELEGRP plug or connector is securely installed on your extension cord:

• Ensure all connections are tight and the housing is fully closed.
• Plug the male end (NEMA 5-15P) into a compatible 125V grounded electrical outlet.
• Connect the female end (NEMA 5-15R) to the desired appliance or tool.
• Always ensure the total current draw of connected devices does not exceed 15 Amps.
• To disconnect, grasp the plug or connector firmly and pull straight out from the outlet or appliance. Avoid pulling by the cord itself.
