Product Information

Full details

The Masterplug 4 Socket Extension Lead is designed for home and office users needing to power multiple devices simultaneously. Its primary benefit is extending power access with a generous 5-meter cable, allowing for greater flexibility in device placement. A potential caveat is its IP20 rating, making it suitable only for indoor, dry environments. Key features include four safety-shuttered sockets, a durable polypropylene construction, and wall-fixing capability for tidy cable management.

Troubleshooting

No power to connected devices

Check that the extension lead is securely plugged into the mains socket. Ensure the mains socket is functional by testing it with another appliance. Verify that the total power consumption of connected devices does not exceed the 13A limit.

Intermittent power connection

Inspect the plugs of connected devices and the sockets on the extension lead for any debris or damage. Ensure plugs are fully inserted. Check the extension lead cable for any kinks or damage.

Shutter on a socket is stuck

Gently try to open the shutter using a standard UK plug. Avoid excessive force. If it remains stuck, do not force the plug and consider using another socket. Contact customer support if the issue persists.
