What happens here

The final wiring step is to connect the SOOW cable to the main power plug. The video shows the internal wiring of a 30-amp NEMA 6-30P plug, which features specific terminals for Line 1, Line 2, and ground. The black wire from the SOOW cable is connected to one of the line terminals, the white wire to the other line terminal, and the green (ground) wire is connected to the dedicated ground terminal. The creator reiterates that this is a 30-amp plug and is intended to be connected to a 30-amp circuit breaker for proper and safe operation.

Goal: Assemble the power plug for connection to the electrical outlet

Tools and materials

um should be good to go. Same with inside the plug here. So, you have line one, line two, and ground. Simple as that. This is a 30 amp. It's going to be going on a 30 amp breaker. Um so, yeah, stay tuned for the full video when I get this thing fired up. I got a little bit more to do yet, but I'll catch you guys.
