Splicing electrical wire

[Duke4Life]

I do minor repairs on homes and from time to time have to splice wires. I'm guessing this wouldn't be best but has anyone ever spliced a powerhead cord, with the spliced end more towards the plug area?

You can buy new replacement plugs. If it's near the plug and it will still be long enough, cut it off and put a new one on.

Yep and heaters too I must cut then to run through grommets and reef lids. I solder and heat shrink just fine and leave the splice out of water each time

Thanks ya'll! Apreciate the responses.

I wasn't sure with this. I'm actually going to cut the cord so that I can run it through my overflow and not have it show in my tank.
