Troubleshooting

No power to connected devices.

Ensure the extension lead's plug is securely inserted into the wall socket. Check if the wall socket is functioning by testing it with another device. Verify that the total power consumption of connected devices does not exceed the 13A limit.

Intermittent power connection.

Check that all appliance plugs are fully inserted into the extension lead sockets. Inspect the cable and plugs for any damage. Try connecting fewer devices to see if the issue persists, indicating a potential overload.

Extension lead feels warm.

A slight warmth under heavy load can be normal, but excessive heat indicates a potential overload. Disconnect some devices to reduce the load and ensure proper ventilation around the extension lead. If the heat persists or is severe, discontinue use.
