This extension cord is designed specifically for electric vehicles that plug in to NEMA 14-50 outlets. With this extension cord, you can plug in to NEMA 14-60, 14-50, or 14-30 outlets, commonly found at campgrounds, RV parks, and electric dryer and oven connections. Made with heavy-duty weatherproof 6 AWG cable, it can easily handle 50 amps continuous and is suitable for indoor/outdoor use. Length, 20 ft. Will plug in to NEMA 14-30, 14-50, and 14-60 outlets due to its universal plug design. The one end has that universal NEMA 14-30/50/60 plug, while the other end has a standard NEMA 14-50 receptacle for your car charger. Folding handles at both ends keep your hands away from the outlet making it safe and easy to plug in and unplug.
Please note, when plugging in to NEMA 14-30 outlets make sure your vehicle will never exceed 30 amps. We recommend following the “80% rule” and set your charging current to 24 amps when charging from NEMA 14-30 outlets.
Technical note: The plug looks a bit different because it is a special design modified to fit more than one type of outlet. We retain the 240V and ground connections and omit the neutral prong. This makes it possible to safely fit all types of NEMA 14 type outlets. The neutral prong is only used to supply 120V and is not used by electric car chargers. Because of this, it’s not suitable for RV use – intended for electric car charging only.
