How to add male and female plugs for Christmas Lights
มุมมอง 14Kปีที่แล้ว
In this video, I go over how to add male, female, and in-line female plugs to your lamp cord. This allows you to create your own custom sized extension cords. The materials we are using in this video are: SPT1 lamp cord Gilbert male and female plugs Crescent Mini Cutters - a.co/d/jc6xUKn

    Love the video. Appreciate the thorough detail and explanation. I like seeing the setup during the daytime so I can exactly what is being done. For future videos, a bonus would be to see the installations at nighttime too to see the final result! Thanks for sharing.

    What would it hurt to wrap that final female connector with electrical tape to waterproof it ? Just pointing it down doesn't seem enough to me.

    • @midwestchristmaslights
      @midwestchristmaslights หลายเดือนก่อน

      I wouldn’t. The purpose of leaving it open is to allow the connection to dry out should it get moisture inside. By wrapping it with tape you’d be promoting moisture retention and it wouldn’t dry out, which would cause you additional issues. I’d say 95% of the industry does it this way

      Awesome, thanks! You mentioned maybe needing a cut for jumps…. I may need to jump 10’ between stories. With those lights can you cut after the last light if the strand is too long and add a female? The cord on the lights looked to be 18 or 20 gauge.
