Title: Have an MP7W2 cord strain relief with question.
Post by: Mike_J on March 11, 2021, 03:07:00 pm

As per the subject have an MP7W2 cord strain relief. Looked it up and it looks like it takes a 7/8" hole. Is that a round hole or one of those funny shaped holes?

Yes, 7/8" round hole. Thank you PRR.

Guess what is no longer second on the all time list of terrible things to do. Installing cord strain reliefs. Some wonderful human being recommended a hose clamp to help with the job and was he ever a genius. Can't find the thread or I would name him as my biggest hero of all times.


Thanks
Mike

My best hero of all times goes by the name of echuta13 for recommending a hose clamp for assisting in installing a cord strain relief and was he ever correct. Nowhere near number two on my list of terrible things to do any more.


Thanks
Mike
