Product Information

Full details

This 6-gang extension socket is designed for users needing to power multiple devices indoors from a single outlet. Its key benefit is providing ample reach with a 3-meter cable and six Type G outlets for simultaneous use. A caveat to note is the absence of an individual on/off switch for each socket, requiring full disconnection for power cycling.

Does this extension socket have individual on/off switches for each outlet?

What type of plugs are compatible with this extension socket?

How long is the power cable?

What should I do if multiple devices cause the power to cut out?

This indicates that the total power consumption of your connected devices likely exceeds the 13A limit. Unplug some devices to reduce the load.

Is this extension socket surge protected?

Troubleshooting

No power to connected devices

Ensure the extension socket is securely plugged into a working wall outlet. Check if the fuse in the wall socket has tripped. Verify that the total power draw of connected devices does not exceed the 13A limit.

Loose connection in an outlet

Inspect the socket for any visible damage. Ensure the plug of the connected device is fully inserted. If the issue persists, discontinue use and consider replacing the extension socket.

Extension socket feels warm

This can indicate a heavy load. Unplug non-essential devices to reduce the total current draw below 13A. If the socket remains excessively warm with a light load, discontinue use immediately and replace the unit.
