FAQs
Can I use this extension lead for indoor appliances outdoors?
This extension lead is specifically rated for outdoor use. While it can power indoor appliances outdoors, it's best to ensure the appliance itself is also suitable for outdoor conditions or is sufficiently protected from the elements.
What is the maximum power rating for this extension lead?
Please refer to the product packaging or the manufacturer's specifications for the exact maximum power rating. It is crucial not to exceed this limit.
How do I store the extension lead to prevent damage?
Utilize the integrated cable tidy to coil the cable neatly. Store the coiled lead in a dry, protected location, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Is this lead safe to use in the rain?
The lead is designed for outdoor use, but it's recommended to protect the connections from direct rain or submersion in water. Ensure all plugs are securely inserted and shielded where possible.
Can I connect multiple appliances if they are plugged into a power strip?
This extension lead has a single socket. If you use a multi-way adapter or power strip, ensure the *total* power consumption of all connected appliances does not exceed the extension lead's maximum rating.
What is the warranty period for this product?
Warranty information is typically found on the product packaging or the manufacturer's website. Please consult these resources for specific warranty details.
Troubleshooting
No power to the connected appliance.
Ensure the extension lead is securely plugged into the mains socket. Check that the appliance is switched on. Verify the mains power source is active. Inspect the cable for any visible damage.
Intermittent power supply.
Check the connection at both the mains socket and the appliance. Ensure the cable is not bent or kinked. Inspect the cable and plug for damage, and discontinue use if damage is found.

This may indicate the connected appliance is drawing too much power for the extension lead. Disconnect the appliance immediately and check its power rating. Do not use the lead if it continues to overheat.
