Product Information

Full details

The Masterplug 4 Socket Individually Switched Extension Lead is designed for home and office users who need a reliable, energy-efficient way to manage multiple devices from a single outlet. Its key benefit is the individual switching capability, which allows you to cut power to specific appliances to reduce standby consumption. While it provides excellent organizational utility with its two-metre reach and wall-fixing options, it is important to note that it is limited to a maximum of four connections, making it best suited for standard desk or entertainment setups rather than high-load power arrays.

FAQs

Can I use this extension lead outdoors?

No, this product is designed for indoor use only and should be kept away from moisture and damp conditions.

What is the maximum power capacity?

Always check the label on the device to ensure your total load does not exceed the maximum wattage rating, which is typically 3120W (13A) for standard UK leads.

Does it have surge protection?

This specific model focuses on individual switching and safety shutters; it does not include active surge protection circuitry.

Can I mount this on a wooden desk?

Yes, the wall-fixing holes allow you to secure the strip to wooden surfaces using appropriate wood screws.

What should I do if a switch stops clicking?

If a switch becomes unresponsive or feels physically broken, do not attempt to repair it yourself. Discontinue use and replace the unit for safety.

Troubleshooting

A device is not receiving power

Ensure the individual switch for that specific socket is in the 'ON' position and the LED indicator is illuminated.

The power strip indicator light does not glow

Verify that the main power source is active and that the plug is fully seated in the wall outlet.

Plug feels loose in the socket

Ensure the plug is fully inserted past the safety shutters, which may require a firm push due to the built-in protection mechanism.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your Masterplug lead, first ensure the total wattage of the connected devices does not exceed the manufacturer's specified capacity. For wall mounting, use the designated fixing points on the rear of the casing; ensure you use appropriate screws for your wall surface type. To care for the unit, keep it in a dry, indoor location away from heat sources. Periodically wipe the surface with a dry, lint-free cloth to remove dust. Never submerge the device in liquid, and if the outer casing or cable shows signs of physical damage or fraying, the unit should be replaced immediately for safety reasons.
