I have one of these surge-protected 6-socket extension leads with a 2 metre cable, but this is not long enough. I looked inside, but the cable is clamped rather than attached to screw-in terminals.
What is the best way of attaching another cable?
Any advice or suggestions gratefully received.
(It is needed to join a pump cable inside a large water fountain)
I have seen the ones designed for SWA cable, where you pour resin into them - Could I just use this? (The cable looks like 1mm flex)

cut the wiers off inside leaving tails, and joint the wires with screwblocks, solder, crimps etc.
Easier to buy a new 6 way tho, theyre very cheap. Unless youer running on a small generator the surge function is a waste of time.

Not the same shape, but similar principle: B&Q have submersible connectors - about £8 I think.

How about buying a single gang extension lead of the requird length and plugging the six way into that?
How about:
