What Customers Are Saying
The 15-amp 3-wire grounding connector received mixed reviews. Many found it easy to install and a good value for repairing damaged extension cords, but some reported issues with connecting the wires, build quality, durability, and safety. The product may work well for lighter-duty applications, but customers should be cautious about using it with heavier-gauge wiring or in high-strain situations.

The wire will not safely go around screw.
Would Not RecommendThis is worst cord cap I have ever seen. I am not sure how it is UL approved. I had to throw it in trash.

Shame on Lowes
Would Not RecommendThis is the WORST 5-15 connector I've ever installed. (I've installed dozens over the years). After using this connector, I have decided to never buy another Project Source product again. How is this even UL listed?! You will either do two things when wiring this connector up. 1. improper install 2. take way too much time to make sure this doesn't start a fire. There are other brands, I recommend looking elsewhere.

Good item for the cost.
Would RecommendLow cost way to replace the end of my extension cord. It is a little fiddly to attach the wires to, I wasn't thrilled with how the wires fit under the screw head. If I'd do it again I think that I'd tin the stranded wires ends with solder before I assembled the plug. Overall it works well, just understand this is not a hospital grade cord end.

Nothing to secure the prongs in place. The screw design pushes the wires out from under screw head. No real stress relief had to use electrical tape to secure.

Good plug
Would RecommendGood plug but was a little tedious to get my cords connected. I like to heat shrink the ends for extra support but it was hard to pull the sleeve back over the heat shrink once I made the connections
