Diversitech 2885 Extension Cord 100 Ft 12/3 Contractor Grade

Product Description

The DIVERSITECH 2885 is a 100-foot, 12/3 contractor-grade extension cord designed for demanding job-site and field-service applications. The 12 AWG, 3-conductor construction handles higher amperage loads without significant voltage drop over the full 100-foot run, making it suitable for power tools, HVAC equipment, and other trade equipment that draws sustained current. The yellow jacket is a high-visibility, heavy-duty outer sleeve that resists abrasion, moisture, and job-site wear. Licensed contractors and service technicians working in residential and light commercial settings rely on this type of cord when temporary power runs are needed during equipment installation or service calls.

This extension cord is suited for outdoor and indoor use on construction sites, HVAC installations, plumbing rough-in work, and electrical service calls. The 100-foot length provides reach across larger work areas without daisy-chaining multiple cords, which reduces resistance and maintains proper voltage delivery to connected equipment. The 12/3 rating means it carries both the hot and neutral conductors plus a ground, keeping the circuit properly grounded throughout the run.

Key Features

• 100-foot length reduces the need to chain multiple cords together
• 12 AWG conductors support higher amperage loads with minimal voltage drop
• 3-conductor design includes ground for code-compliant temporary power
• Yellow high-visibility jacket improves safety awareness on active job sites
• Contractor-grade construction built for repeated use in field conditions

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose contractor-grade temporary power cord compatible with standard 3-prong grounded outlets and equipment commonly used in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general trade service work.

Installation Notes

Extension cords of this type are intended for temporary use only and should not be used as a substitute for permanent wiring per NEC guidelines. Inspect the cord for damage to the jacket or connectors before each use and do not operate if insulation is cut, frayed, or compromised. Do not exceed the amperage rating of the cord or the connected outlet. Fully unroll the cord before use to prevent heat buildup, especially under sustained load.
