Recently, a family member accidently cut the power cable when using a hedge trimmer.
I've looked for tutorials on how to repair the power cable, but they say it requires things such as a soldering iron and heat shrink tubing.
So I'm thinking, it might be best just to cut the power cable where its damaged and fit a new plug.
The plug it has now is a moulded plug. Does it matter if the new plug isn't a moulded plug? Would a standard plug with the same type of fuse as the existing plug be sufficient?
