Replacement Plug terminates a 14AWG cord.
Replace broken appliance cord plugs or create a
custom-length cord.
1) Turn off the power of any appliance before replacing the plug!
2) Carefully remove the existing plug.
3) Strip back about 1 inch of the cord jacket from the existing cord.
4) Strip back about 0.4 inches of the wire insulation from each conductor and remove any filler.
5) Remove 1 screw from the strain-relief bracket. Loosen the screw on the other side and
rotate the bracket to the outside. Requires a Phillips head screwdriver (not included).
6) Side the cord through the strain-relief bracket and loosely re-attach the screws to prevent the
housing from sliding down the cord.

neutral wire.
8) Remove each screw and clamp, one at a time, starting with the green/ground screw.
9) Tightly twist the strands into a hook and coil it around the screw. Reconnect the screw and
clamp. Check that the insulation is not touching the terminal.
10) Tighten the terminals screws and check that all wires are properly separated. Tug on the
wires to check that they are firmly seated.
11) Line up the plug with the housing and tighten the screws. Tighten the screws on the SR
bracket. NOTE: DO NOT over-tighten the screws!
