Whether you’re working on-site, powering up at a caravan park, or running equipment at an event, Electrotraders offers a range of 3 pin single phase adapter leads to bridge the gap between plug types safely and efficiently.

Built for Australian environments and compliant with relevant standards, these leads are ideal for connecting incompatible single phase equipment without compromising on safety or performance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is a 3 pin single phase adapter lead used for?

These leads are used to safely connect appliances or equipment with different plug and socket configurations, typically in 240V single phase systems. They're common in workshops, caravans, and portable power setups.

Are these adapter leads safe to use in Australia?

Yes, all adapter leads sold by Electrotraders are made to comply with Australian electrical safety requirements. Our products are assembled using quality components and tested to ensure safety in real-world conditions.

What’s the difference between a flat pin and round pin 3 pin plug?

Flat pin plugs are typically used for general Australian domestic and light commercial applications, while round pin plugs are more common in higher current applications, such as 20A single phase systems. These adapter leads safely bridge the two formats.

Can I use a Tesla 15A to 10A caravan adaptor on a regular power outlet?

Yes, but only if the adaptor includes a built-in RCD or overload protection, which Tesla models do. This makes them suitable for use with standard 10A GPOs while supplying a limited 15A appliance like a caravan inlet or mobile food trailer.

Are these leads weather resistant?

Many of our leads are fitted with industrial-grade plugs and sockets designed for outdoor or rugged use. We recommend checking the product specifications to ensure suitability for wet or dusty environments.

Can I use these adapters on a generator?

Yes, these leads are often used to adapt generator outlets to match the equipment you’re powering, provided the current ratings and plug/socket types are compatible.
