Cable reel ORNO CR-5 4x2P+Z 16A 230V 50 m, IP44

ORNO CR-5 cable reel with a 50 m power cable provides a portable and organized solution for extending mains power. The unit includes four 2-pole plus earth sockets and is rated for 16 A at 230 V. Its IP44 splash protection makes it suitable for damp or exposed environments while the rotating reel stores the cable to reduce wear and keep work areas uncluttered.

Advantages

The cable reel combines a long 50 m cable length with four outlets for powering multiple devices from a single source. Its 16 A rating supports most handheld power tools and portable appliances. The IP44 protection level shields the connections from water splashes and solid objects larger than 1 mm, and the spool design helps prevent kinks and mechanical damage during storage and transport. The compact reel facilitates handling and placement on job sites or in workshops.

Suitable for

• Construction sites where temporary power distribution is needed
• Workshops and garages for running power tools and compressors
• Outdoor tasks such as garden equipment and event power
• Home renovations and DIY projects requiring extended reach
• Temporary power supply for small appliances and lighting

How to use

Unwind the required length of cable from the reel and place the reel on a stable surface before connecting to the mains. Plug appliances into the available sockets, ensuring the combined load does not exceed 16 A. Keep the connections and the reel assembly dry and positioned to avoid mechanical damage or tripping hazards. After use, switch off connected devices, disconnect from mains if necessary, and rewind the cable onto the reel to maintain order and protect the cable.

Usage recommendations

For safe operation, avoid running the cable through sharp edges or across high-traffic walkways. Use the reel outdoors under cover or in conditions consistent with its IP44 rating, and do not expose the reel to heavy rain or submersion. Regularly inspect the cable and sockets for damage and do not use the reel if insulation is compromised. To minimize voltage drop on long runs, distribute loads among sockets and avoid using high-power equipment beyond the 16 A rating.
