This heavy-duty SPARES2GO 16A Extension Lead is designed for demanding environments like construction sites and outdoor events, offering a robust 14-meter reach for generators and temporary power needs. Its primary benefit is reliable, weather-resistant power delivery in challenging conditions. However, its 16A rating means it is not suitable for high-draw appliances that exceed this limit.

The lead is rated for 16 Amps (A) at 240 Volts (V). The maximum wattage is approximately 3840W (16A x 240V). Do not exceed this limit.
While designed for heavy-duty outdoor and construction use, it can be used indoors provided the environment is suitable and connections are kept dry. It is not intended for general household appliance extension where lighter duty leads may suffice.
The cable is weather and temperature resistant, making it suitable for outdoor use. However, ensure that the plug and socket connections remain dry to prevent electrical hazards.
This refers to the cross-sectional area of the conductor wires within the cable, measured in square millimeters. A 2.5mm cable is thicker than standard cables and is better suited for carrying higher currents over longer distances with less voltage drop.
It has a standard 3-pin (2P+E) plug, commonly used for power connections on generators, caravans, and construction sites.
Coil the lead loosely without sharp kinks and store it in a dry, protected place, away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight, to prolong its lifespan and maintain its condition.
Check that the extension lead is securely plugged into the power source. Verify the power source (generator, hookup) is active and supplying power. Inspect the extension lead for any visible damage. Ensure the connected device is functioning correctly and is within the 16A rating.
This is a safety concern. Immediately disconnect power. Ensure the connected appliance's power draw does not exceed the 16A rating. Check for any kinks or damage to the cable. Avoid using the lead if overheating persists.
Inspect both ends of the extension lead and the connection points for dirt, debris, or damage. Ensure plugs are fully seated. If the issue persists, the cable may be damaged internally and should be replaced.
Setup: Simply plug the 3-pin connector into a compatible 16A power source (e.g., generator outlet, campsite hookup point) and connect your appliance to the other end. Ensure connections are secure and dry before applying power.
Compatibility: This lead is designed for use with 240V, 16A power sources and appliances. It features a standard 3-pin (2P+E) plug and socket. Always check that your appliance's power requirements do not exceed the 16A rating.
Care: Store the lead in a dry, protected area when not in use. Inspect the cable, plug, and socket for any signs of damage (cuts, cracks, exposed wires) before each use. Clean with a damp cloth if necessary, ensuring it is completely dry before storage or use. Avoid dragging the cable over sharp objects or kinks.
