Change the whole cable or replace that plugg with one that’s meant to replace it. Or gett a really good home insurance where they don’t look for electrical fires.

$3 vs chance of death

This is polarized.

PN: R52-101AN-00W

For non-polarized

Are you an electrician or electronics expert?

I am and he is 100% right.

Go to the hardware store and buy a replacement plug for like $5. Look up YouTube videos on how to replace an electrical plug if you don’t know how. Can be done with a knife and screwdriver (but wire cutters and stripper is recommended over the knife) in less than 5 minutes.

This is the replaced plug, polarized, from the hardware store.

Just so everyone is clear, I didn't "fix" the plug, I replaced it!

Clearly some of you have never seen the original.

Why is there a zip tie? Looks sus with the zip tie.

Because I didn't want it getting retracted into the body and straining it.

Ah, carryon then. 👍🏻
