3. Determine wire length: Measure the exact length of the wire required for the attachment.

4. Strip the wire ends: Strip 1/2-inch of insulation from each wire-end.

5. Twist the wire ends: Twist the exposed wires together.

6. Attach the cable: Use screw terminals or clamps to connect the cable to the appliance.

7. Tighten the screws: Use a screwdriver to securely tighten the screws.

8. Check the connection: Verify that the wire is firmly secure by pulling it gently.

9. Cover the wires: Use heat-shrink tubing, electrical tape or wire caps to cover the exposed wires.

10. Test the appliance: Turn ON the appliance and check if it is working correctly.
