product details:

A 3-way extension socket, also sometimes called a 3-gang extension cord, is a simpler version of its multi-outlet cousin, the 8-way extension socket. Here’s a breakdown of its key features:

Functionality:

• Provides three additional electrical outlets compared to a single wall outlet.
• Plugs into a wall outlet on one end and has three standard female sockets on the other end for connecting your devices.

Specifications :

• Maximum Current: Typically rated for 10 amps (US) or 13 amps which translates to the total wattage capacity (multiply amps by voltage). Ensure the combined wattage of plugged-in devices stays below this limit to avoid overloading.
• Cord Length: Ranges from a few feet to 10 feet or more, allowing you to reach outlets further away.
• Surge Protection: Some 3-way extensions offer basic surge protection to safeguard your devices from voltage spikes. Look for a joule rating if this feature is important.
• Individual Switches: Not all, but some 3-way extensions come with individual on/off switches for each outlet. This provides more control over power usage and allows you to easily turn off specific devices without unplugging them.
• Safety Features: Look for safety features like overload protection which cuts power in case of excessive current draw, and safety shutters that block unused sockets from curious children.

Benefits:

• Convenience: Extends the reach of a single outlet, allowing you to power multiple devices in a concentrated area.
• Organization: Reduces cord clutter by providing dedicated outlets for your devices.
• Space-saving: Compared to bulky power strips, 3-way extensions offer a compact solution for limited space.
