Changing of 2 pin plug to 3 pin plug(Grounding)

[emptinessben]

hey guys..since many people have been enquiring about grounding of amps..i decided to make a guide to help you guys ..
FYI:grounding will reduce the amount of hissing(feedback noise) that comes out from your amp..
here it goes..i took picture while i changed the plug..sorry bout the pics..its quite blur.. ops:

heres the original 2 pin plug..

nxt..you take a scissors or wire cutter to cut off the plug..remember cut off the plug only..do not cut off the whole cable!!

after you cut off the plug..you gotta strip the rubber(insulator) do not cut to deep or u will cut ur wires inside..do this with patience..cut off arnd 5cm of rubber..as shown above..

FYI:Red=live wire its on the right,Yellow/Green=Ground wire and its on the top, Blue=Neutral and its on the left..as shown below..

Following..you must strip the rubber of the 3 wires(green/yellow,red and blue)remember...the wires are very thin and you must strip the rubber with care..do not cut to hard..

heres how the 3 pin plug look like inside..i repeat top=ground(yellow/green),right=live(red),left=neutral(blue)..

then slowly place the exposed wire into their respective slots..and screw thier respectives screws tightly..and it will look like what is shown above..

Screw back the top of the plug and VOILA!you ahve completed your grounding.. ..
i hope will help you guys..if theres any more enquiries..just here or pm me good luck..
oh ya ..the tools you all will need is.
1: Screwdriver(both flat and round head)
2: Scissors (Sharp)
3: Wire Cutter
4: 3 pin plug(you can get it at any hardware stores)
5: Plier(to help you pull off the rubber)
thats all..
finally done with the guide..yawns..anyway take care and good luck..and most importantly..DO NOT PLACE THE RESPECTIVE WIRES IN THE WRONG SLOTS OR YOUR AMP WILL BLOW!! :cry:

Cheers,
ben
