Product Information

Full details

This 1-meter kenable 008150 power splitter is designed for users who need to connect multiple standard UK devices to a single IEC C14 input, commonly found on UPS units. Its key benefit is efficiently expanding power access for peripherals like monitors or chargers from a UPS. A caveat is its maximum 10A current rating, which requires mindful load balancing for connected devices.

FAQs

What is the maximum power this splitter can handle?

The splitter is rated for a maximum of 10 Amps (A) across both sockets combined. Ensure the total power draw of connected devices does not exceed this limit.

Can I plug any UK device into this splitter?

Yes, you can plug any standard UK 3-pin (Type G, BS 1363) device into the two output sockets, provided their combined power draw does not exceed the 10A limit.

What is the input connector type?

The input connector is an IEC C14 plug, commonly found on Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) and some power conditioners.

Does this splitter have an on/off switch?

No, this splitter does not have an individual on/off switch. Power is controlled by the source device it is plugged into.

Is the cable length adjustable?

No, the cable length is fixed at 1 meter.

How do I open or service this splitter?

This device has a tamper-proof design and requires a specific Tri-wing screwdriver for disassembly. It is not designed for user servicing.

What does RoHS compliant mean?

RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliance means the product meets EU standards restricting the use of certain hazardous materials in electrical and electronic equipment.

Troubleshooting

No power to connected devices

Ensure the IEC C14 plug is fully seated in the power source. Verify that the power source (e.g., UPS) is active and functioning. Check that the total load on both sockets does not exceed the 10A limit.

One socket not working

Try plugging the device into the other socket to rule out a faulty socket. Ensure the cable is not damaged. If the issue persists, the splitter may be faulty.

Overheating or unusual smell

Immediately disconnect the splitter and all connected devices from the power source. This indicates a potential overload or internal fault. Do not use the splitter again and consider replacing it.
