How do you change a 2 pin Australian plug for a 3 pin UK plug All the wire colours are the same?

First, before you do anything else... Find and verify the colours for Live, Neutral and Earth for both nation's standards. (Respectively Brown, Blue and Green/Yellow-striped in the UK). (I don't know the Australian colours.)Then remove the Australian plug - presumably there is an earth contact of come sort, trim the wires to the correct length and fit the UK plug.NOW VERIFY CORRECT CONNECTIONS BEFORE PLUGGING IT INTO THE MAINS!

How to assemble a extension wire?

If you are constructing an extension cord make sure that the cap ends go on the right end of the extension cable. Match the wire cable end when looking at it, to the proper pin configuration of the plug. A non locking plug will be a 6-30P or a locking plug will be a L6-30P. On a 6-30P plug (cap), black wire to the left blade, white wire to the Y terminal and the green wire to the G terminal. On a L6-30P plug, black wire to the X terminal, white wire to the Y terminal and the ground wire to the G terminal. Looking at the end of the cable it should be matched to this configuration. If it doesn't, look at the other end of the cable. No wires should cross when connecting to the blades on the plug, if they do you have the wrong end of the extension cable and the polarity will be wrong when plugged into a receptacle.

Where to plug in atari 5200 power supply?

the power supply adapter plugs into the box that the antenna cable and the cable running to the back of the tv go. Basically everything went into or out of this black box. The RCA looking plug coming out of the bottom of the Atari also plugs into this box. Power goes from that cable to the Atari, and the video/audio signal comes out of the same cable.

Does a PSP slim usb cable work on a normal PSP?

Yes, since they are the same cable. There are two kinds of PSP USB cable, as far as I know: One of them is just the PSP-PC conector. The other one has a battery "plug". They both work, but as far as I can concern, the advantage of the one with the battery plug is that it charges you PSP while it is connected to your PC. But maybe you are confusing the PSP-USB cable with the PSP-TV cable. The TV cable only works on the Slim version of the PSP.


Memorex DVD recorder. DC power cable?

It is a cable that goes into an electric plug on your wall on its one end and into the DVD recorder on the other end, and supplies power / electricity to the recorder device. The cable should be included with the recorder in the same package. If not, I would return the product or request the cable.
