Frequently Asked Questions
How do I connect these extension cords?
- Ensure safety precautions and wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).
- Verify the compatibility of these extension cords with your power source and equipment.
- Prepare the power source by turning it off and safely disconnecting it.
- Inspect the extension cords for any damage or signs of wear.

- Test the connection by turning on the power source and ensuring the equipment receives power.
- Safely route the extension cords to avoid tripping hazards and contact with heat sources or hazardous materials.
- Regularly inspect and maintain the extension cord for wear or damage and keep it clean and free from debris.
Can I connect multiple Allegro Safety extension cords together?
It is generally not recommended to connect multiple extension cords together. It can lead to voltage drops, increased risk of electrical hazards, and potential damage to the connected devices. If you need to cover a longer distance, consider using a single, appropriately sized extension cord.
How long can these extension cords be used?
As per OSHA standards, these extension cords can be used for a maximum of 90 days.
Can users plug a surge protector into these extension cords?
It is generally not recommended to plug surge protectors into extension cords due to the risk of overloading the circuit and potential fire hazards. Surge protectors are designed to handle a specific amount of electrical load, and plugging them into an extension cord that may already be near its capacity can lead to overheating and electrical issues. It's advisable to directly plug surge protectors into wall outlets whenever possible to ensure proper electrical safety and avoid potential risk.
What are the significance of plugs and receptacles in these explosion proof extension cables?
The plug and receptacle components are significant as they facilitate the connection & disconnection of electrical or mechanical devices, allowing for the transmission of power, signals or data between them.
