FAQs

Does this extension lead include surge protection?

Can I mount this extension lead to a wall?

Yes, it includes integrated rear fixing holes specifically designed for wall or desk mounting.

How long is the power cable?

The lead comes with a 3-metre heavy-duty copper cable.

Are the sockets wide enough for large chargers?

Yes, the sockets are widely spaced to accommodate multiple bulky adapters at once.

Is this product safe for homes with children?

Yes, it is equipped with child safety shutters on the sockets to prevent unauthorized access.

Can I use this for high-power kitchen appliances?

While it can handle most small appliances, avoid exceeding the maximum wattage capacity of the lead.

Troubleshooting

Power light is not illuminated

Check that the lead is fully plugged into the wall outlet and the wall switch is turned on.

Device connected to the lead is not receiving power

Ensure the device plug is firmly seated in the socket and verify that the device itself is switched on.

Unit feels loose when wall-mounted

Ensure you are using the correct size screw heads that fit firmly into the rear fixing slots and that they are driven into a secure surface.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Wide socket spacing prevents adapter clashing
  • Surge protection protects expensive electronics
  • Generous 3-metre cable length offers placement flexibility
  • Integrated mounting holes for organized cable management
  • Includes child safety shutters

Cons

  • Fixed cable length cannot be swapped for shorter options
  • Requires significant desk or wall space due to the 6-gang footprint
  • Not intended for heavy-duty industrial machinery

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure the unit is placed in a dry, well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources. Use the rear fixing holes to secure the unit to a wall or desk using appropriate screws if a permanent setup is desired. This lead is compatible with standard UK 3-pin plugs. To maintain performance, avoid daisy-chaining multiple extension leads together, as this can lead to overloading the circuit. Regularly inspect the cable for any signs of fraying or wear. When cleaning, always disconnect the lead from the wall power first, and use only a dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth; never submerge the unit in water.
