Content
In one embodiment, a power extension cord 108 may be used to create an electrical connection between a modular heated cover 104, and an electrical power source 110. In one embodiment, the extended electrical coupler 108 is a standard extension cord. Alternatively, the extended electrical coupler 108 may include a heavy duty conductor such as 4 gauge copper and the required electrical connector configuration to connect to high power outlets. Power extension cords 108 may be used to connect the power source 110 to the thermal covers 104, or to connect one thermal cover 104 to another thermal cover 104. In such embodiments, the power extension cords 108 are configured to conduct sufficient electrical current to power the electrical heating element of the modular heated covers 104. One of ordinary skill in the art of power engineering will understand the conductor gauge requirements based on the electric current required to power the thermal cover 104.
