The Leviton 101-P is on the large side (not huge, but probably larger than the plug it is replacing, and larger than some replacement plugs available), but that also means you can get a good grip on it, if you need to unplug it.In part because of the large size and good design it is very easy to install an electrical cord, and your installation will be secure if you do it well--that is, it will not pull apart if someone pulls the cord instead of the plug, and it should be impossible to short-circuit. The plug is a single unit--there are no parts to disassemble or get lost.Some smaller replacement plugs may be more "attractive", but generally the process of installing a cord in them is more difficult and less secure.With normal lamp cord:>> Separate about 1 1/2" of cord>> Strip the last 3/4" of plastic off of each cord. A toenail clipper, carefully used, is a handy wire stripper. If you don't have a stripping tool, then carefully cut through the plastic (only) with a razor or sharp knife, and pull off the plastic. DO NOT expose more than 3/4" of bare wire.>> Twist the exposed strands of bare wire TIGHTLY, so that the many strands become a mini-cable.>> Identify the neutral wire. It has a white stripe on the insulation, or the insulation is white, or the insulation is ribbed. The neutral wire should be attached to the wider prong.>> Wrap the stripped portion of the wires around the screw-posts in the direction the screws tighten (clockwise). This will be on-the-top-and-around on the right screw, and on-the-bottom-and-around on the left screw. You may need a small screwdriver etc. to "tuck in the end of the wire around the screw-posts.>> Tighten the screws good and tight. All of the bare wire should be around the screw-posts, but it won't hurt if a few strands are not perfectly tucked in at the ends.>> Fit the remaining separated but unstripped wire into channels on the top side of the plug (the side on top in the illustration, with the screw).>> Close the plug and tighten the silver screw.If you live in a household in which someone frequently rips plugs out of the wall by pulling the wire, then an generous dollop of household goop before you screw the plug closed will provide an extra level of safety.The contacts in wall sockets, particularly in kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoors, can become stiff for various reasons. Silicon grease can restore "firm but smooth" operation (when pushing-in and pulling-out plugs), improve the the electrical contact, and protect the the contacts from further corrosion. To lubricate the sockets, slather silicon grease on the tines of a plug, and plug it in and out several times.If you are considering buying the plug to replace cat-chewed (dog-chewed, parrot-chewed, rabbit-chewed etc.) wiring, you should know that Household Goop can do an excellent job of repairing moderately damaged wires, much better than electrical tape. And Goop comes in a black version (Shoe Goo) which is invisible on black plastic cords. Don't leave a slightly or moderately damaged cord in use "until you can get around to" replacing it. Fix it immediately with Goop, replace it later, if necessary.Note that this is a "polarized" plug. That means that one of the prongs is larger than the other, (as unfortunately is nearly every household plug these days). That means you'll probably try to plug it in "the wrong way" half the time. The solution is to mark the "up" side of the plug (and of the plugs of other appliances which you frequent plug in and unplug). The easiest method I've found is to use a small patch of blue masking tape. The tape will stay in place virtually forever without curling up or falling off; can easily be removed if you want without leaving a gummy residue or damaging the surface; and the color is bright enough to easily see. > Click on “Stoney†just below the product title to see my other reviews, or leave a comment to ask a question.

I am no electrician, but I still found the item's installation instructions clear, and I knew what was needed to perform the install. It has worked well since that time, attached to a 10 gallon shop vac. The only reason that I am not giving the item 5 stars is because there needs to be more room for the electrical cord/connections inside the device. By applying a good bit of pressure and careful positioning, I overcame that limitation. In many instances, this won't be an issue, where the power cords are not as thick as the one on my device. (The plug Is rated for my shop vac) Still, the design could be readily improved to allow slightly more room, or a warning provided.

I've used these plugs twice so far to replace worn out/unsafe plugs on otherwise spectacular vintage lamps. Easy to swap out and works great!

And rewiring a lamp, I needed a new plug. This plug was easy to work with. The instructions were easy to follow.

We needed a replacement plug for a floor lamp and after reading reviews, decided to order this one. My husband said it was very quick & easy to add this to the existing lamp cord. Would definitely buy again if needed.

Intuitive, ergonomic, stylish and classy. If you're in the market for a replacement plug that checks all the boxes, then look no further. Many have tried, and many have failed, by Leveton has, yet again, hit another one out of the park with their creative new take on an age old problem. All the quality we've come to expect from Leveton at a price everyone will love. This sturdy, sleek replacement plug is built to withstand years of abuse, and will surely become a treasured family heirloom for years to come. Thank you Leveton. and thank you Amazon. A winning combination of a great product at a great price, and amazing customer service. Ten out of ten. would wholeheartedly recommend. So go ahead and swipe that "buy now" prompt. You won't be disappointed.

Por el precio esta perfecto. Otras marcas de supuestamente igual calidad están más caros. Y este se ve super resistente.

I used this to effectively repair a string of lights on a white artificial Christmas tree. It did the job!

Significantly overpriced but i cant find the two prong replacement ends locally so i didnt have much choice. Easy to understand instructions make replacement pretty much fool proof. Product appears to be of good quality.

Great repair.Took 5 minutes with 1 screw driver and a knife, to repair a broken plug (got crashed) of an otherwise fully functional electrical vacuum cleaner worth 100s of dollars.Very happy.
