AC line-cord for my table-fan (Vornado) finally frayed

I agree the best solution is to splice inside the fan.

I doubt the other splices indicated above are intended to be installed
exposed and to take strain in the cord.

How about installing a plug on the end of the cord and plugging it into
an extension cord.


Re-read for context.. where on the cord is the damage? where does the
repair need to be made?
