16A 230v heavy duty extension lead (IP44 or IP67 connectors)

This lead is designed to connect appliances with a 230v 16A CEE 60309 commando plug, to a 230v 16A CEE 60309 commando socket. 

Examples include:

• Construction, commercial including welding and industrial applications to connect equipment with a CEE 60309 plug to a CEE 60309 socket.
• Caravans and motor homes on camp sites, where they are commonly referred to as 'caravan hook ups'.
• Boats to marina power supplies, commonly referred to as a 'hook-up' or 'shore line' power cable.
• Generators to catering vans.

Available with two types of connector:

	IP44 for standard applications Protected against water spraying from any angle. Most common type of connector, used outside for caravan hook ups and marinas. High quality German manufactured connectors.
	IP67 for harsh outside conditions Protected against temporary submersion in water up to 1m deep for 30 minutes. In order to form an IP67 seal, the connectors the lead is attached to must also be IP67 rated. High quality Italian manufactured connectors.

Standard 16A extension leads are often made from smaller 1.5mmsq easy to damage artic blue cable, which does not comply with the requirements of BS7671 IEE for connecting caravans (2.5mmsq minimum cable required). Due to its poor resistance to both mechanical/UV damage it also is entirely unsuitable for marine applications.

In contrast, these leads are carefully constructed in our UK workshop from the highest quality and most robust cable and plug/sockets available. The much larger sized 2.5mmsq H07RN-F rubber cable is specifically manufactured for harsh environments and its safety and performance under extreme conditions simply cannot be beaten. When combined with top quality, extremely robust plugs and sockets, our leads will withstand tough daily on-site use for considerably longer than any other type.

We offer a range of cable storage solutions to keep your lead neat and tidy.

Specification:

• Heavy duty CEE IEC 60309 16A plug and socket (commonly referred to as CEE, industrial, commando or camping connectors), with IP44 and IP67 options.
• 2.5mmsq cable for high current applications.
• The industrial specification H07RN-F rubber cable is specifically manufactured for harsh environments. Find out what’s so special about this cable
• Industrial specification H07RN-F rubber cable, specifically manufactured for harsh environments with high mechanical, chemical, water and UV resistance. Flexibility and performance is retained over a wide temperature range (-25 to 55°C). Find out what’s so special about this cable. 
• There is no regulatory requirement to use orange cable for caravan hook ups. Organisations like the Caravan Club simply recommend it for increased visibility in grass. This increased visibility comes at the cost of using a far less robust PVC cable.
