ELEGRP 15 Amp 125 Volt NEMA 5-15R 2 Pole 3 Wire Grounding Straight Blade Electrical Connector Replacement Cord Outlet Commercial Grade, Yellow, 1 Pack

I have always has trouble finding good quality electrical cord connectors. I could find good quality in the box stores but at a high price (Hubble) or low quality at Harbour Freight. I was pleased to find that the ELEGRP 15 Amp 125 Volt NEMA 5-15R was high quality at a low price. I have also purchased 30 amp connectors from ELEGRP and found the same.

You would not think there was much difference between connectors like this, but there is. I had just used a different brand and it was a pain, working with the common stranded wire found in most cords and trying to form it into hooks and secure under a screw was tedious. This one surprised me.Give the stranded wires a good twist to tighten them up and insert them into the appropriate , clearly labeled ports and tighten down the screw that will firmly capture the wire. No hooks, no escaping strands of wire that pose shorting risks. The bare copper is fully contained and protected. My only issue, operator error, was making the single strands too long, and it did not allow the strain relief to fully capture the cable. I shortened the wires a bit, took another run at it and perfect, professional and finished look. Much easier to install than the screw and hook method connectors. The screws will accept both flat and Philips driver, but you want a good grip use a #1 Robertson drive (square). Very happy with this item, well-thought-out and my new go to for future needs

Unlike much other junk around (I'm returning examples to Amazon right now), this is impeccable. You can't go wrong, and the connections are completely shrouded for safety. Color coded (silver = white = neutral; brass = black = live), and the cord clamp is very solid.

Fit the larger wire as advertised and appears to be rugged connector replacement

My 30 gallon air compressor had a bad plug on the end. Installation was straightforward and my compressor is working again.

These a better built and less expensive than similar ones at Home Depot. I have used several and been very happy.

I had an extension cord with a broken ground prong. Bought this plug to restore safety. Expecting the same as I’ve used in the past – but immediately noticed the surface texture made it easy to grip. Then the material felt metallic while loosening the cord clamp screws. The quick release (and tighten) screws holding the plug face to the body made it easy to take the plug apart. Once inside having connector clamps for the wires made it much easier for me than screw connections! The whole plug design made for a quick replacement!

These straight blade connectors work fantastic. They're super easy to install and I can finally use a couple of extension cords that were no longer safe to use. It's so much more cost-effective to swap out the connectors than it is to just go buy another extension cord. I fixed two cords in approx. 20-25 minutes, so that's really not bad. I plan to buy more of these.
