The compact form factor and straightforward functionality make it easy to position and store when not in use.

How to use

Plug the extension cord into a properly installed mains socket. Ensure the connected device’s plug is fully inserted into the grounded outlet. Use the cord only within its IP44-rated limits — protected from direct exposure to heavy rain or immersion. Avoid running the cable through sharp edges, heat sources or areas with heavy mechanical strain. Disconnect the cord from the mains before cleaning or performing any maintenance on connected equipment.

Usage recommendations

Use the extension cord for temporary or occasional connections and avoid permanent installation. Verify that the connected device’s current draw does not exceed the outlet’s rated capacity and keep the cord away from open flames and hot surfaces. For continuous outdoor exposure or wet conditions, choose a higher-rated outdoor cable or fixed outdoor outlet solutions.
