Twenty-five metres for indoors, with a fuse that watches the drum.

The thermal fuse

Integrated, and the third bullet says what it does: switches the sockets off if the cable overheats.

That is the specific danger of a reel. Wound on the drum, the inner turns have nowhere to send their heat, and a load the cable carries without trouble when laid out will slowly cook them. A thermal fuse is the part that notices.

Three of the four reels here have one. The fourth has a single line of text.

IP20

Stated outright in the fourth bullet: designed for indoor use.

That is honest — and the same bullet then names gardens, workshops and garages. IP20 offers no water protection whatever, and a garden is not an IP20 environment. The two figures in one sentence do not agree, and the rating is the one to trust.

The cable

H05VV-F3G 1.5. Twenty-five metres of 1.5 mm², 230 V, 16 A, 3680 W.

The build

High-impact PVC on a shock-absorbing frame. EMOS is named as a Legrand brand.

The figure not published separately

The coiled rating. 3680 W is the uncoiled number; wound, the safe load is much lower, and only one reel in this family publishes that second figure.
