Abstract
A plug has at least one passage that is defined in a bottom of the body to communicate an interior of the body to allow at least one cable to extend into the body. At least one prong is securely mounted on a seat formed on the body and has a first extension, a second extension and a contacting plate. The first and second extensions extend in a direction opposite to a direction of the contacting plate. A pusher extends into the body for pushing the at least one cable toward the at least one prong. The at least one cable is bent due to the pusher extending into the body and thus the at least one prong is able to pierce through an outer covering of the at least one cable that is inserted into the body from the at least one passage.

In a plug having a hollow casing, a body securely inserted in the casing and provided with two blades extending out of the casing for engaging with a power outlet, wherein the improvements comprise:
- at least one passage defined in a bottom of the body to communicate an interior of the body to allow at least one cable to extend into the body,
- at least one prong adapted to be securely mounted on a seat formed on the body and having a first extension, a second extension and a contacting plate, wherein the first and second extensions extend in a direction opposite to a direction of the contacting plate, and
- a pusher extending into the body for pushing the at least one cable toward the at least one prong,
- whereby the at least one cable is bent due to the pusher extending into the body and thus the at least one prong is able to pierce through an outer covering of the at least one cable that is inserted into the body from the at least one passage.
