Custom Power Cords - Signal and Power Delivery SystemsA custom power cord that is built with a construction site application in mind may not be the best fit for a power cord that will be used in a rather wet environment. This is why they are called custom power cords, as each cord is specifically designed and manufactured with a certain application or goal in mind.
Custom Power Cords - Signal and Power Delivery SystemsTypically, you will want to choose the heaviest wire available to you, and make sure that the power cord you choose have a grounding pin included on the plug.
Cords used for wet applications are a good example of cord customization as they can be custom made with a sealed plug design to prevent liquids from getting into the socket and causing problems.
Additionally, something as simple as the color of your power cord can make a great deal of difference in an application such as a construction site where different colors often indicate certain types of cords, not to mention a brightly colored cord will cut down on tripping hazards.
Occasionally a power cord will even include a surge protector into the overall design of the cord in order to protect against power surges that are potentially dangerous to any tools or machines that utilize your custom power cord.
As you can see there are a vast amount of options when it comes to custom power cords, and that doesn't even include the really important options such as length, amperage, or the number of outlets. As stated before, the best way to ensure that you receive all of the features and specifications to make your custom power cord a perfect fit is to seek out a trusted, experienced custom power cord manufacturer who can help you build the perfect solution for your application.
