I managed to aquire 2 extension cables, has 3 wires inside.
Each cable can hold about 50kg(110lbs).
I weight around 80kg(176lbs)
My anchor point is solid 100%.
Would this setup work?

I don't know about using 2 cords at the same time and also if it was me id use a 10mm rope and not a thick cable as is not as flexible as rope. Anchor point looks good though

Ok, it looks good but do you have access to other ligatures like rope or anything like that? I'm also worried this wire might not squeeze you as quick as a rope would, perhaps some lubricant would work

Also, I have my suspicion the cables won't hold under your weight as your weight is 66 lbs over the LBS limit of your ligature

We are going to ctb with the same method!
Cheers!

If the cables only supports 50kg you should probably find another ligature, just to be sure, I don't think two of 50kg will make a total of 100kg, like, if one snap the other will go too.
But I'm not an specialist, my ligature are bed sheets :v

It's like what @niiina said, if one breaks they all break - Not to say it's impossible but risky in the sense that if your cables fail 10 minutes in you could have irreversible brain damage, making life even harder. Not to scare you, just be cautious

I have no access to a rope. Can I succeed with partial with that setup?
I appreciate your answers

If you grab both cords so they are supporting all your weight, does it hold? Rope is better but what you have will probably work. Full is always more successful than partial.
