product details:

A 6-way extension socket, also known as a power strip with 6 outlets, is a device that provides additional electrical outlets from a single plug. It’s a common household and workshop item, offering a convenient way to connect multiple devices to a single power source. Here’s a breakdown of its key features and considerations:

Electrical Specifications:

• Voltage Rating: Typically designed for household AC voltage (usually 120V in North America and 220-240V in other regions). Make sure the extension cord’s voltage rating matches your local electrical system.
• Amperage Rating: This indicates the maximum total current the extension socket can handle safely (usually between 10A and 13A). Don’t exceed this limit by plugging in too many high-power devices simultaneously. Check the amperage rating of your devices and ensure they stay within the extension socket’s capacity.
• Wattage Rating: The total wattage rating is derived from the voltage and amperage rating (Wattage = Volts x Amps). This helps determine the total power consumption limit of the devices you can connect.

Features and Functionalities:

• Number of Outlets: Provides 6 additional AC power outlets for connecting multiple devices.
• Power Cord Length: Varies depending on the model, typically ranging from 1 meter to 5 meters (3 to 16 feet). Choose a length that suits your needs and avoids excessive cable clutter.
• On/Off Switch: Some models come with a master on/off switch, allowing you to easily turn power on or off to all connected devices. This is a convenient feature for saving energy and completely disconnecting devices when not in use.
• Surge Protection: Some 6-way extension sockets come with built-in surge protection. This safeguards your connected devices from voltage spikes and power surges that can damage electronics. Look for surge protection ratings (in Joules) when choosing a model with this feature.
• Spacing of Outlets: The spacing between outlets is important, especially if you have bulky power adapters. Ensure enough space to accommodate all your plugs comfortably without blocking adjacent outlets.
• Mounting Options: Some models might offer mounting holes or brackets for wall mounting, which can help with organization and keep the extension cord off the ground.
