Criterias of choice

When purchasing an extension cord, you should take into account the advice of specialists. The main criteria used when choosing a product are:

  • number of outlets;
  • presence of contacts with grounding;
  • cable dimensions;
  • maximum permissible load;
  • the presence of an automatic fuse;
  • qualitative characteristics of insulating properties;
  • auxiliary components.

Based on the model, the number of outlets will be from 1 to 7. The presence of several sockets makes it possible to simultaneously connect several units of household appliances. Here, it is important to control that the entire power of the connected devices does not exceed the maximum load of the mains filter.The presence of a contact with the ground serves to protect a person from electric shock, when a problem occurs with the device connected to an extension cord, reduces the effect of electrical noise on other connected equipment. This helps to extend the useful life of the devices.

An extension cord with grounding contacts is best used in conjunction with frequently used computers, refrigerators, and other appliances. Cable dimensions are individual for individual cases. Maybe you need a not very long cable up to 2 meters, or the maximum size may be required.

If an extension cord with a cord longer than 30 meters is required, then it is better to choose a round design with a reel for reeling the cord.

The highest load is an indicator showing the power of the device that can be connected to the extension cord. Any of the models has a permissible load size, which is indicated on the body. Before connecting the device, you should first check that its parameters correspond to the power indicated on the extension cord... In the event that an extension cord is required for an electric drill, a device with a power of 1.3 watts is sufficient. A 2.2 kW model is suitable for a washing machine, because it has a high power water heater.

An automatic fuse is an additional protection that is needed when there are power outages in the mains. Automation will save you from overload in the event that several units of household appliances are connected to one surge protector. The extension cord is equipped with a single-layer and double-layer cord. The first ones are used for operation in areas with low temperatures and optimal humidity levels.
