how to install Eaton Tripp Lite Series Power Extension Cord/Splitter
- Power down all equipment and ensure the power source is safe to access before making connections.
- Inspect the cord for any signs of damage to the jacket, connectors, or conductors. Do not use if there are exposed wires or cracks.
- Insert the NEMA L6-20P locking plug into a compatible 250V locking outlet rated for at least 20A. Ensure the connection is secure and the plug engages with the outlet’s locking mechanism.
- Connect each of the two devices to the NEMA L6-20R outlets on the splitter. Verify that the total draw from both receptacles does not exceed the 20A rating of the cord/circuit.
- Route the extension path away from heat sources, sharp edges, water, and foot traffic. If used in a mobile setup (stage, rigging, etc.), secure the cord to prevent movement and reduce trip hazards.
- Power on equipment in a controlled manner and monitor for any unusual warmth, buzzing, or arcing sounds. If anything unusual occurs, discontinue use and inspect the setup.
- When not in use, coil and store the splitter properly to extend its service life, keeping the connectors away from moisture and contaminants.
Frequently asked questions
- What is the purpose of this splitter? It distributes a single 250V, 20A power source to two separate loads via two L6-20R receptacles, enabling you to supply two devices from one locking outlet while maintaining a clean, organized power setup.
- Can I power two large devices at once? The unit is rated for 20A at 250V. While each receptacle can accept up to 20A, the total load must not exceed 20A on the circuit. Plan your device loads accordingly to avoid overloading the circuit.
- Is this cord suitable for outdoor use? The description indicates indoor-use construction typical for professional environments. Check the product packaging or manufacturer guidelines for outdoor suitability, weatherproof ratings, and environmental limitations before using outside.
- What environments is this best suited for? It excels in stage and studio setups, AV installations, data centers, commercial venues, and industrial environments where reliable power distribution and secure connections are essential.
- How long is the cord, and can I extend it further? The cord is 1 ft long, offering compact footprint and easy routing. If you need greater length, consider compatible extensions that maintain correct voltage, current rating, and NEMA locking compatibility, ensuring safe, code-compliant installations.
