Characteristics of garden extension cords
In the garden, you don't just relax sitting on the terrace, but you also use various types of devices or machines that are powered by electricity. So you have to choose a garden extension cord that has really good technical parameters, but you can't forget about the length of the cable. If the extension cord is going to be used outside, it must have the right tightness class. A garden extension cord with a tightness class of IP 44 will work well. It is resistant to splashing water, and also very tight and protected against solid objects with a diameter of 1 mm getting into the structure. Such an extension cord is also resistant to changing weather conditions and dust. It may also have additional protection in the form of flaps. Another important aspect is the rated current load. A garden extension cord that is loaded with a rated current of 10 A will work well for simple work. This means that at a mains voltage of 230 V, the power of the device is supplied with 2300 W. Such a model can be easily connected to a single-phase installation. Three-phase garden extension cords are also available, but they are intended for heavy equipment. These are power extension cords. They cannot be connected to a regular socket. We also need to discuss the length. There are various versions available, such as models with a length of 10, 20 or even 50 meters. If your garden is small, a 20-meter extension cord will be enough.
What is the difference between a garden pole and a regular extension cord?
A garden extension cord is not exactly the same as a garden power post . Extension cords on a drum are very popular. This is a garden cable wound on a drum. The drum is turned using a special crank, thanks to which the cable can be wound and unwound. Extension cords can withstand a really heavy load. Most often, the rated current is 16 A, while for extension cords with an unwound cable, the power is determined at 3500 or 3600 W. A garden post has a completely different form. It can also be used to connect a lawn mower, car vacuum cleaner or drill. In winter, it can power Christmas lights. It is equipped with hermetically sealed sockets. As the name suggests, it has the shape of a post, so it is very stable. You connect devices to it. It is also worth knowing that its height can vary and should be adjusted to your needs.
