Product Information

Full details

This heavy-duty, 14-meter outdoor extension lead from SPARES2GO is designed for demanding applications like caravans, motorhomes, and general outdoor use requiring a robust 2.5mm² cable. Its key benefit is reliable power delivery in all weather conditions thanks to its increased cable size and premium construction. A potential caveat to consider is its specific 16A, 240V rating, which may not be suitable for all high-power appliances.

FAQs

What is the maximum wattage this extension lead can handle?

At 240V and a 16A rating, this extension lead can safely handle a maximum continuous load of approximately 3840 watts (240V x 16A).

Can I use this lead for indoor applications?

While designed for outdoor use, it can be used indoors if the environment is dry and the connection is safe. However, its robust build is optimized for outdoor conditions.

Is the cable flexible in cold weather?

The heavy-duty construction is designed for all-weather use, suggesting good flexibility. However, extreme cold can stiffen most cables; allow it to warm slightly before extensive handling.

How should I store the lead to maintain its condition?

It is best to store the lead loosely coiled in a dry environment, away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, to prevent damage and maintain cable integrity.

What does the 2.5mm² cable size signify?

The 2.5mm² refers to the cross-sectional area of the conductor wires within the cable. A larger size like 2.5mm² indicates a heavier gauge wire, which can carry more current with less resistance and voltage drop compared to smaller gauge cables.

Does this lead come with a warranty?

Please refer to the retailer's specific product listing or SPARES2GO's official warranty information for details on warranty coverage.

Troubleshooting

No power to connected appliance

Check that the lead is securely plugged into the power source and the appliance is properly connected to the lead. Verify the power source is active. Ensure the total appliance load does not exceed the 16A rating.

Lead feels warm during use

Ensure the cable is fully unwound. If the lead continues to feel excessively warm, reduce the load on the appliance or disconnect immediately. Check for any visible damage to the cable.

Connector is difficult to insert or remove

Ensure the connector is properly aligned before attempting to insert or remove. Check for any debris or damage to the pins or socket. Do not force the connection.
