This extension lead is compatible with the Ninja:
- Woodfired Electric Outdoor Oven, Artisan Pizza Maker and BBQ Smoker
- Woodfire Pro Connect XL Electric BBQ Grill & Smoker
Both appliances are supplied with a 13A plug RCD for safety. Unfortunately the size of the RCD means that it won't fit in UK outside sockets.
To overcome the issue, this lead has an extension socket installed within a weatherproof enclosure with clip on lead. The socket is permanently installed in the enclosure with the cable passing through a cable gland, as the length of the socket/RCD plug is too large when both cables pass through the end gaskets.
The Ninja manual states 'If using an extension cord, ensure it is suitable for use outdoors with outdoor appliances. Using the incorrect cord could lead to the cord overheating, melting and/or a drop in voltage. A drop in voltage can increase preheat times and impact cooking performance and/or cook times.'
Standard DIY store extension leads are manufactured from plastic connectors and cheap, easy to damage 1.25mmsq max PVC cable. In contrast, this lead is carefully constructed in our UK workshop using extra thick 1.5mmsq rubber cable to keep resistance and voltage drop to a minimum. H07RN-F rubber cable is designed for harsh environments; its safety and performance under extreme conditions simply cannot be beaten.
Available with either:
- No RCD - Please only consider this option if you are sure that the socket you will be connecting the extension lead to is already RCD protected. See Do I need an RCD? for further guidance.
- In-line (30mA) RCD - An RCD is a life-saving device which is designed to reduce the risk of receiving a fatal electric shock. The unit is IP66 rated weatherproof. The in-line RCD is vital if the socket you will be connecting the extension lead to is not already RCD protected. The RCD is to protect the extension lead and socket.
Specification:
- 13A UK rubberised plug and socket.
- Weatherproof IP55 rated enclosure with clip on lid. An IP55 rating means that the socket is protected against water jets.
- 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.
- Due to the relatively high current used by outdoor cooking appliances, we recommend checking the plug fuse clips remain tight annually, or if the plug ever feels warm, using these instructions.
- PAT tested.
