[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 552692, member: 250"] A couple of questions: - Do you think the manufactures guidance has no account for normal service usage? - Do you think that manufactures have less understanding of suitable tests and/or duration and/or equipment needed to verify the safe operation of their products than you do? If you want to connect greater loads.. just go ahead and do it.. I am really not interested in debating the exact detail of why a specific product may have a maximum power rating specified by the manufacture. I have far more important things to do AND after seeing far to many overloaded accessories where overheating is clearly evident at the cable terminations then I would never recommend exceeding the manufactures maximum power ratings!!
