            Is it ok to plug this into another extension cord? I’m trying to decorate 3 trees but need a minimum of 50’ of cord length

            Answer This Question

            Yes, you can add extensions to this cord but remember to keep under the amp load of the entire extension. For a 16/3 cord for 0 to 50 foot, it is 13 Amps. Add up alll the loads you have plugged in and stay under 13 Amps.

            By|Nov 24, 2020

            Yes. Tree lights are such low power that you can use more than one of these for sure.

            By|Nov 24, 2020

            Im not an expert, but say yes without hesitation. I didn’t plug mine into an extension cord, but into a very short “extension cord” that allows me to turn my outdoor lights on/off with a remote control.

            By|Dec 5, 2020

              I have mine plugged into a timer. Just remember the more distance the less power

              By|Dec 20, 2020

                Yes

                  If I’m only using 2 of the 3 outlets, how do I protect the third unused open outlet from rain and snow?

                  Yes, you should protect each outlet, either used or unused. I buy barrel type shields that fit over the connection and keeps it water tight. These can also be purchased at HD. I also use one to cover any unused socket ends. If you can't find the covers, I use electrical tape to cover the junction or open end to keep the water out.

                  By|Nov 24, 2020

                  Put the plastic baby safe plug in it, and wrap with electrical tape, or drape in an over arch by using a small ziptie to hold it to the side of a post, or railing

                      As long as you do not need more than 13 amps, it will be fine. Best for equipment rated at less than 11 or 12 amps.

                      By|Oct 31, 2020

                      It depends on the amp draw of the saws. Any 16/3-gauge cord between 0 and 25 feet long will adequately handle tool loads up to about 12 amps. Look at the faceplate of the saws to see the amp draw of the saws. I think you would be better off using a 12/3 - gauge extension to be sure, especially with the table saw. This should handle up to 20amps. A 14/3 -gauge 25' extension should be able to handle around 16 Amps.

                      By|Oct 31, 2020

                      Not sure but I believe it would work. I used for outdoor Christmas lights..they don’t draw a lot of power. So again not sure.

                            Yes there is a shorter version but still rated for outdoor but can be used for indoors also. They were hard to find in store, it was Not near the rest of extensions but located near Christmas decorations and lights. I'm very happy with the multi directional unit and it solved a problem I was having.

                                  how long is the cord before it breaks out into the 3 outlets? Or another way to look at it is after the cord breaks out into the individual outlets, how long is each of those individual outlets? Picture online makes it look like there is only about 6 feet before and after.

                                  I put mine away after Christmas but I would guess that 30+ feet is the main cord then the 3 branches are about 3-4 feet long. I initially thought the branches were really short but they are very useful with the 3-4' lengths. I was very pleased when I used this for my light this year.

                                    Length of cord before the breakout is 22 ft. After the breakout each cord is 6 ft. Hope that helps.

                                    The description of the item indicates that it is 40ft. long. However in reality, and in the secondary description, it is 22ft. long from the male end to the splitter. And then each of the three outlet cords are 6ft. long. So really 28ft. in length. You only get to 40ft. if you you count each of the 6ft lengths together, plus the 22ft. I would call that deceptive.

                                      I have bought a couple of versions. This one from Home Depot had a cord that was about 20' from the junction of the three lines to the plug. Each individual line up to the junction was about 5 1/2'. This version is fabulous, as the longer main cord is very nice!

                                          The shorter runs are about 5' each. The majority of the cord is prior to the hub.

                                            It is a 16/3 cable and that is rated normally rated for 13 amps. It is a bad idea to run a cable at the full rated power level.

                                                I know right - Their overview says 15 amp three times and 13 amp once. They are referring to the short 6 foot legs being capable of handling 15 amps but the main 22 foot long cable is only capable of handling 13 amps. The truth is, like a chain the extension cord as a whole is only as strong as it's weakest link. 13 amps is the maximum current this extension cord can handle. BTW - It is in the specifications as 13 amps Maximum.

                                                    4 stars for missleading box, great product. The box for the item i purchased is a bit missleading at quick glance. My box states "40' multi directional outdoor cord"... The box then shows the main part is 22' long then splits into 3 x 6' tails....when added togather it is 40 feet but only 28' long end to end. I figured it out when I bot it and it works great for my needs. I have 2 decorations on my front porch then another cord going up to my roof for some icicle lights. This is just what i needed and works great!

                                                    I so love this product. Three extension cords in one. Perfect for outdoor Christmas lighting especially when limited for outside outlets. Wire is heavy duty and safe. I have had them hooked up since right after Thanksgiving and they have actually been rained on. I gave it a day to let them be sure to dry out. No problem they came on right away. I hooked them to an outdoor remote box l also purchased through Home Depot. My granddaughters love that feature. All they do is push a button and the inflatable Santa Land comes to life. Absolutely know these will provide a long life for many years of enjoyment and absolutely priced right. I ordered on-line with free home delivery. Makes my life easier knowing Home Depot has a good return policy. I wholly recommend this item for price, quality and size.

I had to use a 3 position plug then after attaching the 3 lights, I had to wrap all the connections in a plastic bag, not very pretty. With the new 3 way extension I was able to clean up the connections. I ended up also buying connection covers (waterproof) to cover each connection. Makes the end product look much less cluttered.sd

                                                    Great Multi Directional Extension Cord
                                                    Great product....I was able to plug 3 different Christmas light wreaths to one extension cord instead of fumbling around with 3 extension cords and a power bar

                                                    Love the way these ext cords have their own individual lines.makes decorating so much easier and cleaner looking. Great value and if not using one line close it off with the cap...

                                                    Just right
                                                    It's perfect for having multiple outdoor christmas lights to plug in. And it withstands the harsh winter weather of Quebec. Very happy with it.
