This is pretty basic, but I don't know much about electricity, so I thought I'd double check.
I've a Samsung camcorder. The dumb cat chewed on the adapter's cord, the part that goes from the adapter to the camcorder. He left the cord that goes from the adapter to the outlet in the wall, alone.
Damage as depicted in Image 1:
Can I fix this easily on my own? What risks do I run? Since the cord that's broken is between the adapter and the camcorder, I assume I won't get electrocuted messing with this.
A new adapter is about $70, so... I have a project I am working on, that I need the camcorder for, and cannot charge the batteries without a working adapter. I can't afford a new adapter right now, so I am hoping I can work something out temporarily with that wire...
Anyways the reason I am posting is that I've fixed wires before without a problem, but these 2-layer kind confuse me... I just don't want to fuck something up.
Info about the adapter, in case it matters:
