I always buy this product.
I always buy this product as it works well. Some plugs are larger these days and cover the on off buttons.

It does what it’s supposed to do breaks the power
I bought this to replace an old one that was looking dirty even though it was just discoloured being white. We had it in our lobby and got the full sun on it.

RCD safety plug
RCD socket adapter. Bought to go with my new electric lawnmower. Very solid and good make. Used it the day I bought it. Order online, picked up at Sainsbury’s in Bedworth. Excellent service as always.

Safety Protection
I bought this adapter about a month ago and I am so glad that I did as I have been doing a lot of work at my Mums house and she has no RCD fuse box and I feel a lot safer when using electric saws and power washer when I have this adapter connected to the socket

Hello Mr k,
I can advise the following for the Masterplug RCD 1 Socket Adapter:
Only if it's a trip or a fault on the power line. Heat usually means that the plug is at its maximum capacity and the fuse is about to go. 13A fuse supports around 3000kw/h on a 240 volt system.
Thanks for using Q & A.
Hi JKH, thank you for your enquiry.
An RCD will protect against shorting to Earth, or rather an imbalance in Live and Neutral power draw, but this may not be the fault profile which e-bike batteries take so we cannot guarantee it will be of any additional use in this way (although it won't be any worse so is probably still worth trying).
Hope this helps and thank you for your purchase.
Hi Carbouy, thank you for your enquiry.
The allowable tripping times for an RCD Adaptor or Plug are far shorter than for a Circuit Protection RCD in a consumer unit, 40mS compared to 300mS, so for smaller level faults this should easily trip first (but the trip times converge for larger imbalances so it isn't 100% guaranteed to always trip first).
Hope this helps and thank you for your purchase.
Hi there
The Masterplug RCD 1 Socket Adapter should be plugged into the extension and then the mower is plugged into this. However, any item should be tested before using.
Hope this helps
Thanks for using Q&A
Hi Margot, thank you for your enquiry.
That will depend on the power draw of your fridge (which if it is fairly modern may be anywhere between a few hundred watts to a couple of kilowatts), the adaptor is capable of feeding 13A (3,120W / 3.12kW) but it is best not to fully load a device constantly.
Hope this helps and thank you for your purchase.
Hi Nell,
Thank you for your enquiry.
We can confirm the device is compatible with the cable reel, provided that the weeder’s load does not cause an overload. This would impact the reel prior to affecting the Adaptor.
Hi SassyQ,
The maximum resistive capacity for this safety adaptor is 3,120W / 3.12kW, so your radiator sounds like being a suitable load.
Hello Bomada,
The supplier has advised the following for the Masterplug RCD 1 Socket Adapter:
"The device is Active (Non-Latching) Type - when power is cut to the device, the RCD will trip and have to be reset."
I hope this helps.
Thank you for using Q&A.
Hi There
Masterplug RCD 1 Socket Adapter
This should be OK but I would advise to check your wheelchairs manual to make sure the plug is suitable.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Hi Han,
The Masterplug RCD 1 Socket Adapter is not suitable for a hot tub.
Thank you for using Q&A
