    • With your hand, pry the socket shell out of its base.

    • Remove the socket with your hand and then cut the wires with the wire cutters.

    • The neutral wire connects to the wide plug blade and is distinguished from the hot wire by ribs, color, printing, or indentations in the plastic insulation.

    • By hand, tie an underwriters knot in the cord.

    • Also by hand, connect the wires by wrapping them clockwise around the screws and tighten and connect the neutral wire to the silver screw.

    • An underwriter's knot prevents the wires from pulling out of the screw terminals when cord is tugged. ( The entire process of tying an underwriter knot can be done by hand . Form a loop using the first wire. Then, form a loop around the first wire and pass the tail through its loop. The strain on the cable is now taken by the knot.)
