Taking your granny on holiday

[Lovemyev]

SOME of those wind up extension leads only have a low rating value and the thought of using one of them to run a Granny cable makes the hair on the back of my neck stand on end !.
Can I ask, what size flex is fitted to that extension lead ( please tell me it is not two core flex ) and what is the reel rated at can I ask ?.

I wouldn't use a wind up extension cable unless it had a built-in RCD as some are only rated at 10A.
I use my 16A camping Commando cable 3g1.5mm2 with a waterproof socket and 3 pin plug convertor.
