i have recently viewed an egg called ’Temporary Power Blackout---With no evidence!’ it explains how to black out a home or school. He says in it that you stick a paper clip in there while holding a rag to instulate it. It trips the circut breaker or blows the fuse.
The Picture above is a connector, yours will look similar to this if you decide to do it. The same but it would have duck tape at the end of it.
A Better way to do this is to get a an old extention cord or some kind of electronic and cut the end off that goes into the wall disguard the rest, cut the cord off, so all you have is the outlet that goes into the wall. duck tape the end where the exposed wire is, make sure you tape it good cause you dont won get shocked and die. Plug it in switch power on, walk out. Or plug in and take out. Good Places to put this in; *Resturants- most resturants have kids play ground and have power outlets that are hard too see if you just look from the front.
*Friends house
Bad places to put this in; *Schools - school goes during the day. no point really. [img] This way is alot easier, alot safer and alot more efficient[img]http://www.progressive-growth.com/prodimages/electrical/plugend_male.jpg

Dec 02, 2005 4:47 pm - hey australian man this wont work seein as you need a closed circut to short it out, you may be lucky and the lectricity jumps the wires but you have to strip the cable and connect your + and your - wires, not the groud, this will send electricity back to the breaker shutting it down, the way you mentioned still lets the electricity flow out, and that guys egg you read bout stickin a paper clip in the outlet [ its gotta be a u bend] will work ill give ya 1* cause im nice
Mar 21, 2006 6:18 pm - yeah man ziggys right nice idea though but u have to strip the wires and then solder the + and the- together so that theres a cercuit and the power goes back to the board and will either screw up the fuse if its an old house or flip the circuit breaker 5***** because i do it to :D
and cause im from australia
