Electrotraders range of Adapter Extension Leads
Whether you're working on a construction site, setting up for an event, connecting equipment in a food truck or powering up your RV, Electrotraders offers a wide selection of single and three-phase adapter leads to suit your needs.
Our range includes 10A to 15A caravan adaptors, CEE Form (IP44 & IP67) conversion leads, flat to round pin transitions, and reefer-style connectors – all built with durability and compliance in mind. These adapters are ideal for environments where portable power must match differing plug types or current ratings.
Every lead is assembled using robust, industry-standard components by qualified electricians right here in Australia, ensuring reliability, compliance, and peace of mind in every connection.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is an adapter lead used for?
Adapter leads allow users to connect plugs and sockets of different types, current ratings, or configurations—such as flat pin to round pin, 10A to 15A, or Australian to international standard connectors—safely and reliably in a range of settings.
Are your adapter leads compliant with Australian electrical standards?
Yes. All adapter leads sold by Electrotraders are either manufactured to or assembled in accordance with relevant Australian standards. Our electricians ensure that each lead is constructed using certified parts and undergoes thorough testing before dispatch.
Can I use a 15A to 10A caravan adaptor safely?
Yes – but only if it's a certified safety device with an integrated RCD (Residual Current Device) or overload protection. Our Tesla-branded caravan adaptors are a trusted solution that meets these safety requirements, ensuring your RV or caravan setup is legal and secure.
What’s the difference between CEE Form and Australian standard plugs?
CEE Form (commonly used in Europe) connectors are designed for industrial and outdoor applications, often with IP-rated waterproofing. Australian plugs follow AS/NZS standards and are not directly compatible with CEE Form – hence the need for adapter leads to bridge the gap safely and effectively.
Are adapter leads suitable for three-phase power?
Yes, we stock a full range of three-phase adapter leads including 4-pin and 5-pin variations in both 20A and 32A configurations. These are commonly used on commercial and industrial equipment like reefer containers, portable machinery, and event distribution boards.
Can I get custom lengths or configurations?
Absolutely. At Electrotraders, we assemble many of our leads in-house, which means we can offer custom cable lengths, plug/socket configurations, and even rugged options tailored to your environment. Contact us for bespoke solutions.
