Question about assembling my own DIY AC Cable

Hi
I am about to assemble my first DIY AC Power cables for the first time. I chose the Yarbo SP-1100W as cable  and Viborg connectors.
Connectors:

Cable:

 

I was looking through some guides on youtube how to assemble it and I found this video from Furutech and as you can see they separate each conductor in 2 branches. I don't understand why they are doing that, does anybody know why? Should I do that as well for my power cable?


Cheers

I also used the furutech contact  on the plug wires. Others have stated they don't like the rhodium plugs, only needed in a harsh saltwater environment.
