In my garage I have a 50ltr - JCB Electric Compressor - 13 amp. The mains lead is about 1.5 meters long, or 1.5 meter shorter than it needs to be, to avoid me continually using an extension lead.
Extension leads are designed to be tripped over when using the angel grinder. Not funny if you then save yourself from damage by grabbing hold of the wife.
What is the best to safely extend this please? Is it as simple as sticking a "3 pin - in line connector" or am I missing something silly here.
Burning down my garage is not high on my list of things to do this year. It rates alongside: Electrocuting myself in the garage, when switching on the compressor and other fun things to do in the garage.
