Each leg worked – high quality – good product

I ordered this cord because it protects the 2 20-amp outlets with independent circuit breakers.
This is a 30-amp generator cord and needs circuit breakers to limit the power that can be pulled from the circuit.
Many older generator cords do not have circuit breaker protection.

When you purchase a gasoline or dual-fuel generator, many people don't realize that you can't just string a normal extension cord into your house and expect to get all the juice to come through. Using a simple cord, like one you might use for your electric drill to reach out into the driveway simply won't work. It won't carry the full load from the generator properly. Basically, it's a bottleneck issue. You are trying to send all the electricity from a say…5,000 watt generator into your house or job site with a straw.
So how you do that is by using an extension cord like this one. It is heavy, thick, and loaded with copper strand wire. And that's exactly what you need to move the full power of the generator into your house or wherever, without tripping the breakers on the generator, or if you use a power strip in the house…the breakers on THAT.
This is the problem we had before we found this cord. If your generator has a 110/240 volt four-prong outlet on it, you will need this cord to come close to moving that 5,000 watts where you can use it. If you have hooked up your generator in an emergency with a single extension cord but found you were straining the generator or tripping breakers after running only 1,500-2,000 watts, you need this cord. Before you can USE the juice fully, you must first GET the juice into the house or onto the job site properly.
That's where this four-extension cord comes in. It's heavy enough to deliver the electricity into four separate 20-amp units. From there, you can then hook in your 'normal' three prong extension cords and run everything the generator will allow without straining or tripping breakers. Before I bought this cord, I was tripping breakers at around 2,000 watts when my generator was rated at 5,000 watts with a 6,250 watt surge. After I hooked it into the generator for a test, I was able to easily run everything, including two refrigerators at 250 watts each, a 1,200 watt microwave, and several other appliances.
BEFORE I bought this cord, I was tripping the breakers on the power strips and the generator at about 2,000 watts. AFTER, I was able to run the full amount of power available without a problem. The wires on this four-end cord are thicker than your thumb and solid copper. They will handle the load and no more problems.

The cord is just fine but you should save yourself the time and frustration by IMMEDIATELY throwing the stupid the carry directly in the garbage. -1 star for including pure garbage ; it would be better WITHOUT the garbage carry handle

Works great

I recently purchased this for my Ford F-150 with pro power onboard 7.2kw (7,200 watts) output.
This cord works great and is well built. All outlets tested with a circuit tester and it shows that the wiring is correct. The seller indicates that although the male plug can handle a full 7,500 watts, the 120v outlets are each only capable of 20 amps max. Therefore the total output from this cable via the outlets maxes out at 40 amps or 5,000 watts. Still, this is an impressive cable and it works well with my Ford F-150 pro power onboard.

Just what I needed. My home outlets would not accommodate my Lotos LT3500 plasma cutter amperage and it would trip the breaker when my amperage setting was over 20 amps. I have a 9000 watts generator with the 4 prongs ,30 amp twist lock that this heavy duty cord can be plugged into. Now, I can run my plasma cutter at its full potential (35 amps) and this cord will supply the power to my plasma cutter without any hesitation. Im glad that I found this cord here on Amazon. I recommend this heavy duty cord for any use. Great quality and well built.

I bought this to use with my back up generator and it is very durable and heavy duty. I tested it out when i tested my generator and it works as it should.
