Shenzhen Shijingjie Male-to-Male Extension Cord Recall
Shenzhen Shijingjie Network Technology Male-to-Male Extension Cords Recalled Due to Risk of Serious Injury and Death from Electrocution and Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Hazards; Sold on Walmart
Updated April 9, 2026
Shenzhen Shijingjie Network Technology is recalling male-to-male extension cords (also called pigtail cables) sold on Walmart because their exposed prongs can become live with electricity the moment one end is plugged in, creating a serious risk of electrocution and death. Using these cords to back-feed a generator into a home's electrical system also creates fire and carbon monoxide poisoning hazards.

The hazard
The recalled male-to-male extension cords violate safety requirements because their exposed prongs can become energized when one end is plugged into a generator or other power source, posing a risk of serious injury and death from electrocution. In addition, using the cords to supply power from a generator to a residential electrical system (backfeeding) poses a risk of electrocution and fire. The cords' short length encourages the use of generators close to homes or enclosed spaces, posing a risk of carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning.
