  Don't DIY electricals. Its dangerous.
  
  Get an approved extension cord.

  diff power, use diff cable leh.. u noe hw to choose the cable anot? if not, better call electrician lar... when u cut the cable, & u connect two separate cable together, u oso need to use crimping tool to crimp the rubber together.. using those cable tape is not safe enough... afterall, is better to let the professional do..
