I need an extension lead to run my steam cleaner which is rated around 2kw. I tried two of the extension leads I already own, one tripped out and the other flymo one I use for the mower (without a cutout) got very hot very quickly.
I thought the Masterplug reels they have at Screwfix would be good as they are rated max load of 3.1kw but they have the same ones at B&Q and on the reel itself it says 2.4kw ??

I guess it would do the job as it's max load rating exceeds the 2kw of the steam cleaner, but still, any thoughts? recommendations?
