Masterplug 13A Surge Protection Socket Adaptor - Black

This adaptor is designed for standard UK 13A plugs. Ensure your appliance does not exceed the 13A rating for the socket.

The product description does not specify the exact amperage for each USB port, but they are suitable for charging most standard portable devices. The total output across both ports may be shared.

The surge protection offers defense against common voltage spikes and surges. It is not designed to protect against direct or catastrophic lightning strikes, which can overwhelm most surge protectors.

You can plug in one device into the standard socket and two devices into the USB ports, for a total of three devices simultaneously.

Electrical safety regulations generally prohibit the use of socket adaptors and chargers in certain bathroom zones. Always adhere to local electrical safety guidelines.

While technically possible, it is generally not recommended to plug adaptors into extension cords, as this can increase the risk of overheating and exceeding power limits. It is best used directly in a wall socket.

Ensure the adaptor is fully inserted into the wall socket. Check if the wall socket itself is working by plugging in another known working device. Verify that the connected appliance is switched on.

The USB ports may share a maximum current. If multiple high-power devices are connected, charging speed may be reduced. Try charging only one device or a device with lower power requirements. Ensure the USB cable is not damaged.

Check the adaptor's manual for information on an indicator light. If there is a specific surge protection indicator and it is not lit, the surge protection may have been compromised. Consider replacing the unit.
