Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and reduce strain on the connectors; the molded strain relief will help protect the termination points during normal use.

Recommendations

For safe operation, use the cable only with equipment rated for the local mains voltage and avoid overloading the circuit. Inspect the cable periodically for damage to the insulation or connectors and replace it if any defects are found.
