Product Information

Full details

The Status 3-Way Individually Switched Fused Adaptor is designed for homeowners and office professionals who need to safely expand a single wall outlet into three independent power sources. Its primary benefit is the combination of individual socket control and integrated surge protection, which helps manage power consumption and protects delicate electronics. The main caveat is that it is a direct-plug unit, which may block adjacent sockets on some double-wall plates depending on the orientation and wall socket design.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I use this outdoors?

No, this product is designed strictly for indoor use and must be kept away from water and damp environments.

Does this provide surge protection?

Yes, it features integrated surge protection to help safeguard electronics from voltage spikes.

What is the maximum amperage allowed?

The unit is equipped with a 13A fuse, so it is rated for a maximum load of 13 Amps.

Can I plug another extension lead into this?

It is generally recommended to avoid 'daisy-chaining' extension leads or adaptors to prevent overloading the circuit.

Will this block the second socket on my wall?

Depending on your wall plate design, it may partially cover the second socket, but it is typically designed to minimize obstruction.

Troubleshooting

Device connected to one socket is not receiving power.

Check that the individual switch for that specific socket is toggled to the 'on' position and that the appliance plug is fully seated.

None of the devices are working.

Verify that the wall socket is turned on, or check if the main household circuit breaker has tripped. If the adaptor itself is damaged, the internal fuse may have blown.

Adaptor feels warm to the touch.

Unplug the unit immediately. Ensure you are not exceeding the maximum total load and check that the devices plugged in are functioning correctly.

Pros and Cons

Cons

  • May obstruct secondary outlets on some double-socket wall plates

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward: simply plug the adaptor into any standard 3-pin wall outlet and ensure it is pushed home firmly. When plugging in your devices, confirm that the total wattage does not exceed the maximum load indicated on the product. To keep the adaptor in good working order, keep it free from dust and moisture. If you need to clean the surface, ensure the device is completely unplugged and use only a dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical sprays or abrasive materials, and periodically inspect the casing for any signs of heat damage or loose connections.
