1.4 Extension cords and pigtails
Due to the high amperage draw of electrofusion fittings, the use
of an extension cord is not encouraged. In the event such usage
is necessary, the following lengths and wire gauges are
recommended:
Cord Length Wire Gauge
25 ft. # 10/3 (6 mm2)
50 ft. # 8/3 (10 mm2)
Extension cords should not be used on large couplers.
A pigtail is an adapter for converting from a 30 amp twist-lock to
a 15 amp straight blade plug. Its purpose is for powering the
processor where a NEMA L5 socket is not available, especially
while downloading. Its use is not recommended in field
applications with electrofusion fittings over 63mm in diameter.
1.5 START/STOP Card
START / STOP card can be used as alternative to the buttons
on the keypad. For instance, you can confirm the commands or
start the welding process by scanning the START bar code on
the card.
The STOP barcode can be used instead to go back to the
previuos step.
