Extended Product Information

FAQs

What does 'Arctic-Grade' cable mean?

Arctic-Grade cable is specifically manufactured to remain flexible and operational at much lower temperatures than standard cables, ensuring reliability in cold environments.

What is BS EN 60309?

BS EN 60309 is a European standard that specifies the requirements for plugs, socket-outlets, and appliance inlets for industrial applications, ensuring safety and interchangeability.

Can this lead be used with standard household power outlets?

No, this lead uses BS EN 60309 plugs and sockets and is typically rated for industrial voltages like 110V. It is not compatible with standard domestic (e.g., UK 3-pin or Schuko) power outlets.

What is the length of this extension lead?

This specific product variant is 25 meters long. Defender also offers other lengths.

Is this lead suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, the robust construction and BS EN 60309 connectors are designed for use in harsh environments, including outdoor applications.

What is the maximum load this lead can handle?

This particular Defender Extension Lead variant is rated for 32A. Always ensure your equipment's power requirements do not exceed this rating.

Troubleshooting

No power to connected device

Check that the BS EN 60309 plug is fully inserted into a live power source. Verify the power source is functional and that the connected device is switched on. Inspect the extension lead for any visible damage.

Cable becomes stiff in cold weather

While designed for low temperatures, extreme conditions might still affect flexibility. Ensure the cable is the correct 'Arctic-Grade' type. If stiffness is excessive, allow the cable to warm up slightly indoors before use.

Intermittent power connection

Ensure both the plug and socket connections are clean and free from debris. Check for any damage to the pins or sockets. Ensure the cable is not being pulled or stressed at the connection points.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Simply connect the BS EN 60309 plug to a compatible power source and the socket to your electrical equipment. Ensure all connections are secure before powering on your devices.

Compatibility:

This extension lead is designed for use with equipment requiring a BS EN 60309 compliant power source. The specific variant is rated for 110V. Always ensure your power source and electrical equipment are compatible with the lead's voltage and amperage ratings (4mm², 32A).

Care:

  • Inspect the cable and connectors regularly for any signs of damage, cuts, or wear.
  • Store the lead in a clean, dry place when not in use, away from extreme temperatures and chemicals.
  • Clean the cable and connectors with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh solvents.
  • Ensure the lead is fully unwound and not coiled tightly when in use, especially when carrying significant loads, to prevent overheating.
