Two switch gear options, both sealed to IP66. Standard leads use GEN3 fittings with virgin-grade PCA18 bodies, 316 stainless steel springs and screws and brass internals of greater than 85% copper. The Clipsal upgrade fits a 56 Series polycarbonate plug and socket rated for -25 to 75°C, in a straight or angled plug. Between them runs H07 rubber flex that resists UV, oil and weather and is submersible to 200m.

Standard or Heavy Duty? Standard 2.5mm² cable is rated at 27 Amps under AS/NZS 3008.1.1.2009 Table 14, above the 20 Amp rating of this lead, and runs up to 40m. Heavy Duty 4mm² cable (36 Amps) cuts maximum DC resistance from 8.21 to 5.09 ohms/KM for less voltage drop, and is the only grade at 50m and 60m.

Built and test tagged in Brisbane. Licensed Australian electricians assemble each lead at our Rochedale QLD warehouse, then test and tag it before it ships, with a 24 month warranty behind every order.
