Product Information

Full details

The Faithfull Power Plus Outdoor Ground Spike Socket is designed for gardeners, landscapers, and DIY enthusiasts who need a reliable, portable power source for outdoor tools and lighting. It provides the key benefit of extending mains power safely into garden beds or open turf via its integrated ground spike; however, users should note that the cable must be fully unwound when in use to maintain its 13-amp capacity and prevent overheating.

FAQs

Can I leave this outside permanently?

No, it is designed for temporary outdoor use. It should be stored indoors in a dry place when not in use.

Does this work with 110V site equipment?

No, this unit is designed for 230V equipment only.

Can I plug a multi-way extension lead into this socket?

It is not recommended, as you risk exceeding the 13-amp capacity, which could lead to fire hazards.

What is the maximum load this can handle?

It supports up to 13 amps, provided the cable is fully unwound.

Is the unit waterproof?

It is weather-resistant but not waterproof. Do not submerge in water or use during heavy rainfall.

Troubleshooting

Power not reaching devices

Check the connection at your mains wall socket and ensure the circuit breaker has not tripped.

Unit feels warm during use

Immediately unplug devices and ensure the entire 15-meter cable is fully unwound, as coiled cables can generate heat under load.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Secure ground-mounting avoids messy tangles on the lawn
  • Provides two sockets for simultaneous tool use
  • Durable housing built for outdoor conditions
  • Generous 15-meter length for large gardens

Cons

  • Requires manual cable management to prevent overheating
  • Not intended for permanent, year-round weather exposure
  • Capacity is limited if cable remains coiled

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up, identify a stable area of soft ground, push the spike firmly into the soil until the base sits flush, and connect the plug to a protected outdoor mains outlet. The socket is compatible with standard 230V UK plugs. To care for the unit, keep the housing free of excessive mud and debris. While it is weather-resistant, it is not waterproof; avoid leaving the unit submerged in standing water or exposed to heavy, prolonged rain. After use, inspect the cable for any nicks or damage, wipe the casing clean with a dry cloth, and wind the cable neatly for storage in a dry area.
