Hi guys I'm needing an extension lead as my old 1 from years back is lookin
tired and old. I have plenty 1.5mm & 2.5mm grey twin & earth left over from
previous property. We are in a rented property for next 8 months hence don't
want permanent fixtures. I'm needing a 5 metre long extension to power max 4
devices namely 2x 55w flo lights. 1x 17w lizards heat mat and 50w cage feeder.
I plan on using new 13 amp fused plug on the 2.5mm cable and a new 4 way
extension socket on the other end. Any opinions on this been
safe,ok,unsafe,dangerous? thanks for help and advice
Non-expert diy view from me. Don't use the solid wire cable, as it is
not designed for flexible use,
+1
+2 buy some 1.5mm flex
