Cord is used especially in American English, although it is also used in British English, especially in connection with telephones. Flex and lead are both used only in British English and usually you can use either. However, flex is used more to talk about a shorter cord on a smaller piece of equipment such as a kettle, iron or lamp. Lead is used more to talk about a longer cord, especially an extension lead that can be used on various different pieces of equipment. * cord虽然也用于英式英语，但尤用于美式英语，尤指电话线。flex和lead两词仅用于英式英语，通常可通用。但是flex较多指连接小型装置如水壶、熨斗或台灯等较短的导线。lead较多指较长的电线，尤用于可连接很多种不同装置的extension lead。
