using the blue tesla charge cable

[146Briggs]

Hi Everyone,
I picked up my model 3 yesterday.
When I got home I tested to see if my andersen charger would reach the car from our two parking options. Even though I ordered the 8m tethered cable when I ordered my charger I'm still about 1.5 meters short in one of the parking options which is a bit of a pain. Can I use the blue tesla cable that came with the car as an extension?

If it fits.

No, it doesn't work with type 2 cables, like the blue one supplied. Although they may appear to fit, some pins are recessed to prevent this.

If it doesn't fit, you must acquit

People are going to have to be "of a certain age" and likely US based, to get that joke (lol).

But if you use the red cable, you stay in Wonderland and see how deep the rabbit hole goes.

I was always slightly annoyed the challenger hellcat came with a red and a black key and not a red and a blue key haha. I guess traditional car manufacturers dont think modern enough.
