Safety Guidance & Tips

This adapter is for temporary outdoor use only. Keep plugs sheltered from rain and avoid leaving it connected in wet conditions. Do not exceed 13 A total load. For added protection, pair it with our Masterplug ILRCDNG Inline RCD Adaptor to provide instant fault protection against electric shock.

Tip from the MotorCables team: When checking inside the socket block, don’t remove the outer screws too far – those small rubber washers keep it weather-sealed. That’s why we test them!
