Audio Hire provides extension lead hire in Adelaide for weddings, parties, corporate events, presentations, live music and other temporary event setups where equipment needs to be positioned away from an available power outlet.
An extension lead might not be the most exciting piece of event equipment, but it can make a big difference when you're setting up speakers, mixers or other equipment in a venue where the nearest power point isn't where you need it.
Why Hire an Extension Lead for an Event?
Event equipment doesn't always end up next to a wall socket.
Speakers may need to be positioned at either side of a room. A mixer might be set up at the back of a venue. A presentation area could be some distance from the nearest outlet.
A suitable extension lead gives you more flexibility when positioning the equipment, rather than forcing the entire setup to revolve around where the power points happen to be.
The Audio Hire extension lead is a 25-metre heavy-duty power cable reel with four outlets, making it particularly useful when several pieces of equipment need power in the same general area.
25 Metre Extension Lead for Events
The 25-metre cable length gives you plenty of reach for many event setups.
Because the cable is supplied on a reel, it can be deployed where needed and packed away again after the event. The reel provides four 240V 10A outlets, allowing multiple connections from the same power point.
The maximum load is 2400 watts when the cable is fully unwound.
It's important to use electrical equipment within its rated capacity and to fully unwind the reel when operating at its maximum load.
Extension Leads for PA and Speaker Setups
Audio equipment often needs to be positioned away from the main power source.
For example, a pair of speakers might be placed on either side of a dance floor or presentation area while the mixer and other equipment are located elsewhere.
An extension lead can help provide the extra reach needed to position the equipment appropriately.

Extension Lead Hire for Weddings
Weddings often involve equipment spread across different parts of a venue.
Speakers may be positioned around a ceremony area, while the main equipment is located somewhere less visible. At the reception, the audio setup may be positioned away from the dance floor or presentation area.
A 25-metre extension lead can provide useful flexibility when the available power outlets aren't conveniently located.

Extension Leads for Corporate Events
Corporate presentations, conferences and launches can involve temporary audio equipment, presentation equipment and other electrical devices.
The room layout may dictate where equipment needs to go, rather than where the power outlets are located.
An extension lead can help bridge that gap, particularly where equipment needs to be positioned in a presentation area or away from the venue walls.
For corporate events requiring microphones and speakers, Sound System Hire Adelaide provides complete audio options.
Extension Leads for Live Music
Live music setups can involve equipment positioned across a relatively large area.
Speakers, mixers and other equipment may need to be separated from one another, making cable length and power distribution important considerations during setup.
The Audio Hire power reel provides four outlets at the end of a 25-metre cable, which can be useful when several compatible devices need power in the same area.

Is an Extension Lead the Same as a Cable Cover?
No. They solve different problems.
An extension lead provides additional reach between an electrical outlet and equipment.
A cable cover or cable protector is used to cover cables where they run across areas where people may walk.
Depending on your event setup, you may need both.
Audio Hire also provides a Cable Cover/Protector for situations where cables need to cross walkways or other areas used by guests.
Using an Extension Lead Safely
Extension leads should be used according to their specifications and in a way that suits the environment.
The Audio Hire power reel has a resettable thermal cut-out switch and is rated for indoor and protected outdoor environments.
The reel should be fully unwound when operating at its maximum rated load.
You should also avoid creating unnecessary trip hazards by routing cables carefully and keeping them away from areas where people are likely to walk. Where a cable must cross a walkway, appropriate cable protection should be considered.
What Can You Plug Into It?
The power reel provides four 240V 10A sockets.
This can be useful for compatible event equipment such as speakers and other audio equipment, provided the combined electrical load remains within the reel's rated capacity.
If you're unsure about the power requirements of your equipment, check the specifications of the individual devices before connecting them.
