How to connect custom cells to UIViewController?

I have an assignment where I should create a product list in view controller with table view and custom cells. I customized the cell and I'm getting a error while compiling.

class ElectronicsTableViewCell: UITableViewCell {

    @IBOutlet weak var productNameLabel: UILabel!
    @IBOutlet weak var buyLabel: UILabel!
    @IBOutlet weak var primeLabel: UILabel!
    @IBOutlet weak var priceLabel: UILabel!
}


class ProductListViewController: UIViewController , UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource{

   @IBOutlet weak var tableView:UITableView!

    var electronicProducts = ["Swift DVD","Swift Manual","Beats EarPhones","IPad","I Watch"]
    var price = ["45","34","67","90","89"]

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

        tableView.delegate=self
        tableView.dataSource=self

        tableView.register(UITableViewCell.self, forCellReuseIdentifier: "LabelCell")

        // Do any additional setup after loading the view.
    }

    override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
        super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
        // Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
    }


     func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {

    return electronicProducts.count
    }


        func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell
     {
        let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "LabelCell",for: indexPath as IndexPath) as! ElectronicsTableViewCell

        let productName = electronicProducts [indexPath.row]
        cell.productNameLabel?.text = productName


        cell.buyLabel?.text = "Buy"

        cell.primeLabel?.text = "Prime Eligible"

        let productPrice = price [indexPath.row]
        cell.priceLabel?.text = productPrice


    return cell
    }

    func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
        print("you selected cell \(indexPath.row)")
    }

}

The error is : Reading from private effective user settings. Could not cast value of type 'UITableViewCell' (0x10300f858) to 'assignment2.ElectronicsTableViewCell' (0x1013b3178). (lldb)

Assuming you have marked the class for the TableViewCell in the storyboard, is this by any chance a duplicate of this question Also avoid using force casts. Try 

func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell
     {
        let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "LabelCell",for: indexPath as IndexPath)
        if let labelCell = cell as? ElectronicsTableViewCell {
        let productName = electronicProducts [indexPath.row]
        labelCell.productNameLabel?.text = productName


        labelCell.buyLabel?.text = "Buy"

        labelCell.primeLabel?.text = "Prime Eligible"

        let productPrice = price [indexPath.row]
        labelCell.priceLabel?.text = productPrice
        return labelCell
        }
    return cell
    }

I think the main issue is with the line:

tableView.register(UITableViewCell.self, forCellReuseIdentifier: "LabelCell")

You need to register your custom class, so change UITableViewCell to ElectronicsTableViewCell.

Hope that helps.
