Figure 1. Two controls are necessary for individual control of each side of a queen- or king-size electric blanket. Three cords — the power cord, control interconnector cord and control-to-blanket power cord — make up the wiring external to the blanket.

  • “A” is the power cord, with 2 conductors. It’s 6 feet long.
  • “B” is the control interconnector cord, with 3 conductors. It’s 11 feet long.
  • “C” is the control-to-blanket power cord, with 3 conductors. It’s 12.8 feet long.
  • “D” is a control.
  • “E” is the other control.

Figure 2. The female power-cord connector from the blanket control (or second blanket control in the case of a dual-control unit) attaches to the blanket at the safety circuit enclosure, which is shown opened in this photo.
