Info, please, on power cord burn-in


How do I short the female end of my power cord when I'm conducting a burn-in ? I've heard of running a wire from one slot to the next, but what kind of wire, and must it run continuously from one slot to the others ? Specifics, please. Thanks very much.

A photo gave me the answer I was looking for. Thanks very kindly to you all, especially the always helpful and interesting Albertporter.
My 2 cents of advice, based upon my experience at DIY cords. Having built about a dozen so far of varying types. A cord will display 80% of what it can due upon first listen. Fully formed by about 150-200 hours of use. Plug em in and enjoy.
Enclosed is a site that has all kinds of connectors for PC cable burn. A lot cheaper than the "audiophile" sites.
