EXPLOSION PROOF ELECTRIC PLUG & SOCKET
The Larson Electronics Explosion Proof extension cord allows operators to safely extend the range of their explosion proof light or equipment cords into the boundaries of the hazardous work area. This extension cord is equipped with a general area use industrial cord cap for plugging into standard wall outlets, and an explosion proof receptacle for connecting explosion proof equipment within the hazardous environment.
These units are constructed of 25 feet of 14/3 SOOW explosion proof cord and are rated at 15 amps of continuous service. The cord is chemical and abrasion resistant and comes with a 20 amp explosion proof receptacle installed on one end and an industrial grade plug installed on the other end. We also include an extra matching explosion proof plug for operators to attach to their equipment which allows them to avoid any issues with plug and receptacle equipment compatibility with this extension cord.
The explosion proof receptacles on these units are of a twist lock design. In order for a secure and working connection to take place, the operator must insert the plug and twist until it locks into place. This ensures a safe seal is made before any sparks from electrical contact take place. To ensure the highest safety, operators should make connections outside of the hazardous area.
