I could only find 1.2.10 meyer leads
i use 2x 10meter leads for my lights... I neeeed 4 meters..
The extra 6 meter is uncoiled but is everywhere hazzardly what do i do? Leaf it all the way round ma tent?

That's not to far off what I did

Your best leaving uncoiled but keep a check on how hot and flexible they become.
You can get volt drop over certain distances meaning the cable is actually pulling more volts/watts then the source actually demands to keep up with the demand.
As above ^^^ if possible make ya own with socket boxes
If possible
in a green and pleasant land
I wouldnt dare touch the plug socket lol. Or trust my work there haha
So i run a seperate 10m 14a p heavy duty cable
Ive.hecked volt drop and at that amp its not u til 15meter u get 0.2 start which is allowable so 10m should be fine.
I just hate all the wire laying there
Im doing this grow and moving house also so dont wana change toomuch
Electric forum told me 4.5amp 600watt x2 would be safe on 1 lead but meh i went for 2 so there is even less on the line.
So each 14amp 10m cable has 4.5amp fireup 3Mp in use 600wT and contactor timer on each
Just they go up 2.5m and across 1m and there at the tent.... The 600watt also have 2meter and 1 meter cables ffs lol but just shy of enoigh to reach the wall without puttin ballasts in bedroom lol then the lights shy of connecting..... So extension lead 10m
2m would have plugs half way down me wall in bedroom or a lead o nly just poking up ballasts have to sit in the eves area....
Doable but... Wanted them clesr and open for fire reasons and access

Cheapest way would be to chop the excess off the reel and reterminate in a new socket. If youre lucky the old one may allow it to be reused.
I would imagine the 10m is specced correctly and as BG says will sort that pesky voltage drop.

Wire size, fuse rating and desired load.. go on Google. Search up on the electrical regulations cable size amp rating. Divide your watts by volts and that's your load so go higher. Don't coil cable. The weakest point in your circuit should always be the fuse. 1.5mm twin + E with a 8 amp fuse be plentiful.

My 10m extensions are made by masterplug and are 3 core 1.25mm wire. It says there fully rated for 13 amp loads
The 600w hps is 2.9amp 4amp fireup.
They should be ok?
the mrs trying to get me to spur off the socket like your saying but im fekin scared to srems to me it eill make more fire risk to me lol ive no idea why old storys i guess
Im in 2 minds.... Am i safe? If am safe ru ning off my 2 cables il do it. If not il spur a socket i guess? Talk to me more lol.
I got 2 grow 10 weeks to do and im. Moving. But its my loft and over my family so i want it 100%
