Residual Current Device  (RCD) Available either as a plug that is wired to the mower and then can be left permanently attached - far and away the best solution or as an adaptor. This device cuts the current if there is any short circuit from a cut cable or moisture infiltration.

Electric lawn mowers are cleaner, usually cheaper to purchase than the equivalent petrol-powered version, are lighter and can be more convenient. Their main disadvantage comes from the trailing flex which can get tangled around plant / containers etc. and poses a hazard in its own right if cut by the mower. Electric mowers should always be used with an RCD and should not be used on wet grass. They are also limited in their power and are rarely available over 1500W, if you require a larger, more powerful machine, then a petrol mower is a better choice.

Electric mowers are best suited to smaller, more compact garden as then the flex does not need to be so long, they are also less likely to overheat than if used over an extensive area. If your lawn is larger than about 140 square meters or has some areas that are quite a distance from the nearest power source, then you ought to consider a petrol version as the amount of cable starts to get unwieldy.

Battery Power. Seemingly the ideal answer, all the advantages of an electric mower without the disadvantages of the cable. The drawback is one of a lack of power, both brute force to cut the grass and also of running time before the next re-charge. Battery powered mowers do have their place for particular circumstances, but until the technology develops they won’t be replacing petrol or mains electric machines for a while yet.
