AC WORKS® has brought you two new protective power adapters.  The power source for these adapters is a 50 Amp outlet.  The concern about this by many of our customers is that the outlet will carry too much power to their equipment causing it to burn out.  The solution we came up with is the addition of the 20 Amp breaker.  The breaker helps to reduce people's concerns about a power overload to their equipment by only allowing the necessary 20 Amps of power through the adapter.   

Four 5-20R Outlets with a 20 Amp Circuit Breaker

We have two adapters to offer our customers.  The SS2CB520, which is a heavy-duty industrial cable.  This 1.5-foot adapter offers a NEMA SS2-50P to NEMA 5-15/20R. The NEMA SS2-50P is a 50 Amp, 4-prong marine/industrial power distributor plug. The NEMA 5-15/20R is a 15/20 Amp, T-blade female household connector.  Then we have the SS2CBF520 protective power strip cord. The cord is 1.5-feet in length and is a NEMA SS2-50P/ CS6365 to four NEMA 5-15/20R outlets. The NEMA SS2-50P is a 50 Amp, 125/250 Volt locking plug. The NEMA 5-15/20R is a 20 Amp, 125 Volt, T-blade household female connector.
