Pass & Seymour SA399BKCC10 Residential Straight Blade Plug 15-Amp 125-volt Two Pole Three Wire, Black

I am an electrician of many years and it took me 4 tries to get this right and only by heavily modifying some crimp connectors:- There's no top plate to put stranded wires under the screws. Don't do it.- Even with crimp connectors, there is barely any room to keep a proper crimp onto the wires.- There's not enough room for any extra wire behind the terminals.- No clamp for stain relief in the connector to hold the cable in place so if you tug on it hard, you may pull wires right out.It will take a very experienced hand to make the installation of these safe and even then, no tugging on the cable when it's plugged in.

I tinned each wire with the ends curving to the right, as you should. Hook the wire in the slot just below to add some support for the wire. The plug comes with a nice indent for grasping when plugging and unplugging. Even though it doesn't have a cord clamp, you shouldn't unplug by yanking the cord anyway. Goes back together nicely if you take your time to get all the stripping lengths right. I like these because they are compact with not huge ends.

There was no room for the wires in the housing and no strain relief. It was painful trying to force the housing back over the wires once connected to the leads as there was no room for anything. Saved a couple of dollars but wish I'd spend a little more and gotten something I didn't have to fight with so hard to get working. The power cable could be easily pulled out of the back of the plug should someone pull it by the cable. The housing was very hard plastic and so there was no 'give' when tying to pull the cover back over the wires.

Dont wastd your mobey. Super cheaply built junk. No way to build it cheaper.Bought two last week for some 5 bucks each and thought what a rip off for some cheap plastic and hard to install.Beware: Today (a week later) the same plug gets sold for some 19 $$.

Opening for extension cord is too small for SOW cable and to extend wires far enough to make connections, means that when it’s pulled back to cover connections, extension wire pulls out of plug.
