240V 3 outlet extension cord for grow-room ballasts and gear
The Hydrofarm 240V 12ft cord routes a 14-gauge copper feed to three NEMA 6-15R outlets across a 12-foot run. Rated for 15 amps and 3,600 watts, it lands two HID ballasts plus a controller without overshooting. The grounded 240V NEMA 6-15P plug seats square in any standard 240V receptacle in a flower room. Heavy-duty molded outlets keep the strip from cracking when cords get yanked off-square. The 12-foot reach handles short hops between a sub-panel and a single rack with slack to spare.
240V 3 outlet extension cord that lands at the rack
Growers typically run the 12-foot length when the sub-panel sits within two strides of the bench. Place the cord with the strip at the rack side and the male plug seated to the wall outlet first. Across three outlets the trip stays predictable as long as the sum of fixture draw stays under 15 amps. The 14-gauge copper conductor matches the gauge most ballast and inverter-based controllers expect on 240V. Indoor-only rating means no outdoor or wash-down placement — keep the strip off the floor in flower. And the heavy-duty molded outlet handles the cord pull when a fixture rotation moves the strip mid-cycle. On 3,600 watts of total room headroom, that's enough for two 1,000W ballasts and a small controller. Pair the cord with a clean 240V breaker so the trip protection lands at the panel, not the strip.
Key Features
- 14-gauge copper, 12-foot reach: Carries 240V load across a single rack without splice or extension.
- 3-outlet power strip: Lands two ballasts plus a controller from one wall outlet without daisy-chained taps.
- NEMA 6-15P 240V plug: Fits any standard 240V grow-room receptacle without rewiring the panel.
- 15 amp / 3,600 watt cap: Predictable headroom for two 1,000W ballasts with room for a small controller.
- Heavy-duty molded outlet: Holds up to off-square cord tension when a fixture rotation moves the strip.
