The 5 Star 6-Gang Surge Protection Extension Lead is designed for home and office users who need to power multiple devices from a single outlet while ensuring equipment safety. Its primary benefit is the built-in surge protection, which shields sensitive electronics from damaging voltage spikes; however, users should note that while it provides protection, it does not act as a UPS (uninterruptible power supply) for total power outage coverage.

This model is designed for continuous power and does not feature individual switches for each socket.
No, it is strictly advised against daisy-chaining multiple extension leads as this creates a significant fire hazard.
The integrated cable is 2 meters long.
While it provides surge protection, it is always safest to unplug sensitive electronics completely during severe electrical storms.
While it is primarily designed to sit on a floor or desk, many users mount them using the rear keyhole slots if available, though checking the underside of your specific unit is recommended.
Please check the label on the bottom of the lead for the specific maximum load rating to ensure your appliances are compatible.
Check that the main wall socket is switched on and that the plug is inserted firmly.
Unplug some devices to reduce the total load and ensure the lead is not covered by blankets or carpets.
If the surge protection has been triggered by a massive surge, the internal fuse may be blown; check if the unit needs replacement.
To set up, simply plug the extension lead into a standard wall socket. Ensure that the total current draw of all devices connected to the lead does not exceed the manufacturer's recommended capacity. To maintain the device, keep it in a dry, well-ventilated area and avoid running the cable under heavy furniture, which can cause internal wire damage. If the unit gathers dust, wipe it down with a dry, lint-free cloth; never use water or liquid cleaners, and always disconnect from the power source before cleaning.
