Don’t. Even if you understand what you’re doing, someone else won’t and your family will die in a house fire.

Male-to-male end cables allow for the two leads of an open male end to make contact with anything conductive (including your flesh, causing some pretty gnarly burns) to complete the circuit and start a fire. No conscionable electrician will make these for you. It is the dumbest solution to any problem you’re looking to solve. Don’t.

Just a reminder coming up on Christmas.

    Sorry. I ran into that and it was the inspiration for the post in the first place. At least both sides have a ground, I guess?
