Hello everyone after a long time. I was busy though I got no time for uploading more new stuff but now I am back with the fantastic video which will help you regarding how to repair extension cord.
Actually In this video I've shown the easiest way or you can also say method to repair extension cord, I will be repairing my own extension lead cord by replacing the old wire with the new one.
The fault came in my extension was that it's positive and negative current on one end is not working properly. Like it's problem was that when I plug it into 3 face at 0 degree angle it works and when I again plug it in after rotating it 180 degree angle then it doesn't works. It's all due to the reason that my extension cord wire has been broken or some issue has came inside it so now the only way to reslove this issue was to replace with old extension cord with the new one.
I did it so and replaced it and you can see that extension is working quite fine.
I hope that you'd enjoy this video. Stay tuned for more upcoming videos. Don't forget to like & comment.
Thank you for watching!

Please use 3 prong plug on a 3 prong socket
okay sir. We appreciate compliments.
Your video was well made, and is appreciated.
I would like to point out some major fails in the extension lead and cable etc.
-No earth wire. A three pin plug could be inserted, needing a ground.
Non standard wire colour (should be blue for neutral Brown for live and green and yellow for earth)
The extension socket is very poorly made, soldering contacts is bad practise.
Please throw it away and buy a safe one
I have an exact one you've mentioned 😅 my doubt is all negatives are connected properly...except the ground(yellow)..should the ground need to be connected somewhere
Sir, we’re on startup but we’re improving day by day. We hope you will understand. BTW feedbacks are always appreciated.

Nice try hide everything with your hand
Why should we hide everything?
@@easysolutions90 So you hide most of them?😁
@@easysolutions90 Maybe you are not hiding knowingly. But we audiences are not able to see several things, as hand is covering somethings many times.
There are some big mistakes…
Firstly (at 1:06), there’s not DC voltage in the socket, it’s AC voltage! So there isn’t any positive or negative. It’s Life, Neutral and Earth: Life is the one that makes the screwdriver light up, because there’s the full mains voltage in it. Neutral is basically the return path and Earth protects you, if something’s wrong with the device (very simplified explanation).
1:11 Secondly (the biggest mistake), don’t ever work on devices, which are switched on or plugged in! Every wrong touch could be your last breath! Use a multimeter to test for continuity and to check the resistance, which should never be greater than 3 ohms!
3:30 You obviously have to insulate the connections! If the shell breaks and these are accidentally touched, there is full mains voltage going through your body! A short circuit is possible too! Welding or at least soldering the connections (not recommended) would also be necessary, because there is otherwise a big resistance, resulting in heat or even fire at big loads (>5 amps)!
3:56 And again, never work under voltage!
Very nice presentation bhai ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks a lot 👍
I have an extension cord with a switch (reset-off). The switch is now broken and I am planning to just connect the two hot wires together for the extension cord to be usable. Can I actually do that without worrying?
I want to do this instead of throwing it away. I also searched online for a replacement of the switch but it turns out it is too expensive in a way that it is better to buy a new extension cord. There's a label on the switch says that it is a 15A 125VAC for additional info.
Yes you can absolutely connect them and your extension will work First you probably disconnect a wire Thank you for commenting me Now tell me what my new video should be on
Yo, how to clean the extension From the inside and outside if there is water or milk spilled on it, and how can I fix a extension that is open and I’m trying to close it but idk how, how can we do this?
Clean it with some sort of cloth plus do watch our video.
Great vid. Thanx and well done!!
Thanks for appreciation sir!

Azarul Ahmed if this is more in-depth you can actually help me save my extension cord because my dad wouldn't believe me that it burnt out
Azarul Ahmed sorry I meant to do that in public
My multiplug cable somtimes gets hot and tears up itself or maybe melts a bit at some point of the cable. What might be the issues????
You've to change the wire in order to run the machine, the tiny wire can't handle this so get a new heavy wire from the market and it will work for sure.
@Ryan Nur -
This means to high current for the part (or lose connection) , throw it away , it is likely dangerous cheap junk like in the thing video.
No need to change the entire wire all the time because most faults are in the plug (Unopenable). Just cut n change the plug with a new 6A 3pin top. If it still doesn't work then One can check for quality/faults of wire using end to end connectivity with multimeter before discarding for a new one. This will save some money.
Exactly but as the video title is how to repair extension cord so we’ve shown in it what’s described. We hope you understand now.
my extension chord's on/off switch stopped working. its always on regardless of whether the switch is on or in off position
Replace your button or use it as it is otherwise.
@Dhruv Kumar -
Contacts welded them self together
My extention socket keeps turning off the other when one is on why
Mere extension board me dono point me power ari jbki ek hi phase me ani chaye thi
What if you got no tester? Can a multimeter be used? And how?
It's preferred that you should use tester because with multimeter it would be bit difficult to check We guess.
@@easysolutions90 okay, thanks.
In multi meter when u check there is a sound that its clear that means ,wht u check that is working or not.

My extension box led light was flickering that shows fuse blown how to fix it??
By buying new one
Replace the faulty one with the new fuse in order to make it work. There is no other option.
Couldn't see properly you need to take the camera closer
Sir, extension box power off but tester useing power coming what reson all socket
Their might be current stuck inside.
Bro voice help would be extremely helpful 😁😁
We’ll start this soon.
sir mere pass extension cord hai 6AMP-240 volts (6+6) jb ek working me hota hai aur dusre me sirf plug laga hota hai wo( on nhi rehta) to wo current pass kar rha h bht tezz,, koi solution hai iska? mene laptop charger aur phone charger connct kar rkhe the jisme se phone ka switch on tha aur laptop ka switch off
There might be issue inside the extension cord or it might not have capability of bearing more load.
Resister value... I mean how many ohms
For what?
Nice repairing
Thanks for your feedback!

omg
very thin wires (copper strands)😨😲 ! it looks like 0.75mm2 = 18 AWG , this is not good for extension cord
you should use at least 16 AWG = 1.5 mm2
i use 2.5mm2 = 14 AWG ... sometimes i even use 12 AWG in my extension cords for high loads.
I use a microwave power cord
Can i use my charger plug
No why

What are you asking?
Please ask your query in english so we can guide you properly!
Hi, I have a problem with my extension cord
I just got it and found out one of the outlet is not working but the others work well
Should I send it back? Or fix it myself? How to fix the issue?
If it’s new then send it back otherwise try opening & checking the specific socket connection from inside, it’s wire might be broken.
you didnt show us propoerly adding the extension wire to where & where. your hand was covering the board. thats why we saw only your hand not the wire & board. next time show us properly that on the board where you are working.
Sorry for the inconvenience you faced but we try our best to make it more convenient for our viewers but still we’re sorry and will be improving from onwards.

What are you saying?
@@easysolutions90 wire with plug
Without knowing where's the problem you can never mend your electronics. Use a tester and find out where the problem lies.
Yes you’re very right, we agree with you & appreciate you for the advice.
How much in new wire
Country please
@@easysolutions90 india
Non of business to replace the waire
So bro this video is only for those who want to do.
Didn't show how to disconnect the old plug!!!
We’ve shown the whole process instead.
Dont music can?
We’ll be changing music soon.
Thanks for hiding with your hand✋
Really sorry for the inconvenience.
Kuch samjh nhi ayi kya kharab hai aur wire he kharab hai toh phase neutral q nhi check kiya.confusing video.
Ap kya samhajna chahte hen? Aap ka koe sawal hai to bilajhijak pochiye!
SPEEEEEEEEEEEAK, FFS!!!
We got your concern.
We basically from start didn’t speak in any of our video rather we’ve added captions to guide our audience.
