I was repairing an extension cord tonight and I think I made a
mistake.

I had to replace both ends because the cord was cut near the plug
and the receptacle was cracked. Unfortunately, I neglected to mark
which end was which before I cut off the ends.

I took a guess and put the plug on the left end and the receptacle
on the right.

When I tested it, it seemed to take a long time for the electricity
to travel the length of the cord, so I'm assuming I put the plug
and socket on the wrong ends.

Will the electrons in the wire eventually turn around so the
electricity flows faster or should I reverse the ends before using
it?

Thanks!

Are you above the equator or below it. Makes a difference you know.
What you need is a box of Tracer electrons. Based on the concept of
tracer bullets. Not available at the Borg. Good electrical supply
house is where you need to go. They should come with a pair of those
special plastic colored glasses.- Hide quoted text -
