ExtraStar 4 Way Extension Lead 2m, 13A ⚡
Product description
This 4-way extension lead makes it simple to power multiple devices in a small office, living room or entertainment area, offering a 2 metre cable and space-saving white body for discreet placement. With a 13A fused UK plug and a maximum load of 3120W according to the manufacturer, it is suitable for connecting everyday appliances like lamps, chargers and small AV equipment.
Key Points
The extension lead provides four sockets that accept standard UK plugs, allowing simultaneous use of several items without needing extra adapters. The compact housing and moderate 2 metre cable length balance reach and tidy cable management, so it fits behind furniture or near workstations. Safety features include a non-rewirable fused plug and a three-core 1.25mm² copper conductor specified by the maker, which supports consistent current flow and reduces the risk of overheating. ⚡
Technical Specifications
- Name: ExtraStar 4 Way Extension Lead
- Plug type: 13A fused UK plug
- Cable length: 2 m
- Maximum load: 3120 W (13A, 250 V~)

Usage Recommendations
Place the extension close to a fixed mains outlet and route the cable to avoid high-traffic areas or sharp bends, which helps preserve the sheath and conductor. Avoid connecting high-power appliances that together exceed the 3120 W rating, for example multiple heaters or large kettles at the same time, because this may overload the strip. The non-rewirable plug limits repair options, so if the plug or cable is damaged, replace the unit rather than attempting a repair. 🔌
Positive Aspects
The white finish blends into many interiors and is unobtrusive on skirting boards or behind desks. It offers practical expansion of a single wall socket into four independently usable sockets with a manufacturer-stated fused protection. For basic power distribution where heavy industrial loads are not required, this unit is a convenient and affordable choice. 🏠
