plugging in (electrical) leads


Explanation:
I'll say this up front. I don't know much about electrical jargon; but I just gave a performance at a Gala yesterday evening, and the sound crew kept talking about plugging in the leads from the sound board to the monitor & keyboard so that they could output the sound over the main system in the banquet hall during our sound check.

Considering the Dutch it makes sense to me to make this suggestion, but it's only a guess (a _somewhat_ educated one, at that). Hope it helps a wee bit.
