Wire Device

After a hard day's work you arrive back home and sink into the sofa. Tick, tick, tick. The clock on your end-table is ticking — a digital model that assuredly should not be ticking. Ripping off the cover you discover a strange device. You should probably leave, but you're trapped in the gripping comfort of the sofa.

You'd better disable this thing then, whatever it is. Fortunately, whoever put it together forget a parts list underneath it.

Is "Htneves" perhaps "seventh"? Reveal Hint
