I have a power strip that was damaged by water and causes the fuse to 
blow with certain configurations.  I pulled the cord out of it to 
salvage.  The strip includes USB connections for powering phones etc.

I just want to clarify this:  The strip has three wires going to it. 
One is black, one is white, and one is green.  Isn't the green wire the 
power connection for outlets and the white power to the USB?  Or is it 
the other way around?  I know what the black wire is for.
