Question

I need to know if there is a trick to getting the wiring down into the prongs of a self contained electrical outlet...i can't get them in.. i had to replace it because a heater caused it to melt last winter but now i'm stuck with trying to get the wiring in...

Answer 1

if i understand you correctly the wires are breaking off as you push them in to the holes   sounds like you burnt the wires by pulling to much amps and thats what also caused the outlet to melt  hopefully you can peel back the wires to expose enough good copper to connect  if not you need to replace that wire in that circuit which might not be a bad idea anyway  always be very careful of heaters  you could have started a fire very easily

Answer 2

I have read the question several times and I can't understand what you are trying to accomplish.
