This 5-metre, 2-socket extension lead does exactly what it promises—and does it brilliantly. The cable length is spot on: long enough to reach awkward sockets without trailing halfway across the house, but not so long that you’re wrestling with a spaghetti monster of wires. The two sockets are ideal for everyday use, whether it’s powering a lamp and phone charger, a TV and console, or a laptop and monitor. The sockets feel sturdy and hold plugs firmly, with none of that worrying wobble you get from cheaper leads. Build quality is reassuringly solid, with a thick, durable cable that feels safe and well insulated. It’s flexible enough to route neatly around furniture, yet robust enough to inspire confidence that it won’t fray after a few uses. Simple, practical, and reliable—this extension lead is a great bit of kit for home or office. Sometimes you don’t want bells and whistles; you just want something that works. This does exactly that.

Hi adam, thank you for your enquiry.
Yes, as required by BS 1363 there is a BS 1362 compliant fuse in the plug.
Hope this helps and thank you for your purchase.
We just bought one as we thought it was rewireable as the photo shows screws on the plug but when we got it home, it is a moulded plug.
Hi Kinder, thank you for your enquiry.
The plugs we use on our extension leads are rewireable, so yes you will be able to remove it to pass the cable through a smaller hole.
Hope this helps and thank you for your purchase.
Hi Atia, thank you for your enquiry.
The extension is rated for a total combined load of 13A (3,120W / 3.12kW) so as long as your oven doesn't exceed this it should be a suitable device to use with the lead.
Hope this helps and thank you for your purchase.
Hi James, thank you for your enquiry.
No, as previously answered this extension lead does _not_ feature surge protection.
Hope this helps and thank you for your purchase.
Hi James,
No, the Masterplug 2 Socket 5m Extension Lead does not have a power surge.
Thank you for using Q&A
Hello Garrry,
After checking with our supplier, they have advised for the Masterplug 2 Socket 5 Metre Extension Lead: ''I can confirm that BTG5N conform with BS1363/A.''
Hope this helps.
Thank you for using Q & A.
Hello.
Yes, the 2 Socket 5 Metre Extension Lead comes in different lengths with variable amounts of sockets.
Thank you for using Q&A
Hello Garrry,
After checking with our supplier, they have advised for the Masterplug 2 Socket 5 Metre Extension Lead: ''The BTG5N has one fuse in the plug and the sockets are not individually switched.''
Hope this helps.
Thank you for using Q & A.
Hello Lisa,
Masterplug 2 Socket 5 Metre Extension Lead:
This depends on the plug fuse of the fan and whether the manual of your fan confirms it it safe to use with an extension lead. Most fan heaters do not recommend the use of an extension lead as this can be dangerous. This is suitable to use with 13A fused plug.
Thank you for using Q&A.
Hello ste,
The supplier has advised the following for the Masterplug 2 Socket 5 Metre Extension Lead:
"The extension is rated fully unwound at 3120 watts, some tumble dryers do get close to this but not exceed it, as long as nothing else is plugged in it will be fine." They add that adding additional devices/appliances could exceed the 3120W and overload it.
(However, on balance, we'd still advise strongly against using it with your appliance, especially as there is a risk that another appliance could be plugged in in error. Also, without knowing the brand, model, and specs of your tumble dryer we cannot confirm how close it may be to the limits of this lead or if this may exceed it.
Please also check your appliance's user manual for confirmation as, having checked a number of brands and models, they tend to say that their appliance is not suitable for plugging into any extension cord and that it should be plugged into the mains socket only. In all cases, we'd advise to stick to the appliance's own advice).
I hope this helps.
Thank you for using Q&A.
Hi Jane,
Yes the Masterplug 2 Socket 5 Metre Extension Lead can be used with a 1000W microwave with a 13 amp plug.
Thank you for using Q&A.
