| Briggs & Stratton 30-Amp Extenda Panel (4-Prong) Review |
| By Bob Bates |
Our office building situation makes it impossible to use a permanent/standby generator. Installing a transfer switch for our portables is nearly as improbable/borderline impossible. These cords are a godsend!
During "severe" outage (think "hurricane"), we need to power the following:
UPS 1: mainframe computer, 6 monitors, telephone/internet channel bank/router
UPS 2: FAX/e-mail server, monitor, four modems
UPS 3/4: Dedicated security system.
Plus, two smaller UPS systems and computers and three "window-shaker" A/C units.
We use two portable generators. We have four of these cords. And believe it or not, we pull it off!
Admittedly, we shut some of the computers down at night, but a s a 24-hour emergency-type service, we ARE operating 24 hours a day. It would not be possible to run safely and effectively without these cords, given our set-up.
They are a GREAT investment, even if you DO have a transfer switch. You can use an "extra/spare" outlet to power temporary tools/radios/etc., a small fridge or your neighbor's TV. These cords are well worth the money spent. |

| This is a great product. The description is not accurate however. This cord splits the 30 amps into 2 seperate 15 amp pairs. 2 of these outlets have a black stripe, 2 do not, which indicates common circuit. The cord works great, though! |

| How to Pick the Perfect Gen-Cord |
| By Jon Hoch, Founder (Bolingbrook, IL) |
Extension cords work well with small generators because they only generate enough power for one or two appliances.
The most common way to use a portable electric generator is to place it outdoors, then run extension cords through an open window or door to the chosen appliances.
Extension cords have several drawbacks:
(1) You can only restore power to appliances with cords. Hardwired items, like furnaces fans, well pumps and ceiling fans, don't have cords. Therefore, you can't power them with an extension cord.
(2) If the cords are too long, the resulting power drop may damage the generator and appliances. And, if they are placed under rugs or carpets, heat can buildup and spark a fire.
(3) It's time consuming stringing a bunch of extension cords together. The power could be restored by the time you get everything set up.
GEN-CORDS
If you want to use extension cords, consider getting a Gen-Cord.
You simply plug the all-weather cord into your 20- or 30-amp generator outlet then run it inside through an open door or window.
The plug on the inside splits into four 120-volt outlets, where you can plug in several household appliances or additional extension cords.
Sizing your gen-cord is extremely simple.
If the MOST POWERFUL OUTLET on your generator is 30-amps (4-prong), you'll need a 30-amp (4-prong) cord.
If it's a 30-amp (3-prong) outlet, you'll need a 30-amp (3-prong) cord. |
