Question CyberPower CP1600EPFCLCD power lead

[Eamonn100]

I bought a CyberPower CP1600va... and then bought a 10meter extra extension power cable to suit my room socket arrangement.

My 10meter extra extension power cable, (MF-3PC13) is fine for computers... but it's a bit thinner than the CP1600 power cable.

Is a MF-3PC13 cable safe for the CyberPower CP1600? What I've read it, it's fine but maybe there's a safety margin that good practice that's always stated.

If I were you, I'd pick up a power strip that is 10m long, and with a high quality, low gauge wire instead of running a cable that could faulter over time.

My 2 cents.

Please send a link to you proposed 10m long power strip... I can't seem to find any that long.

Where are you located?

Out of curiosity, why do you need 10m worth of cabling to reach a wall outlet?

It so I don't have to walk across a room, get under a table and turn off the switch. This way I can turn it off at the room door as I am going out. I tend not to leave anything on stand by when I leave the house... If it can be helped.

I'm in New Zealand.
