At last a thought about multiple
So pleased to find a multiple that is oriented to take awkward shape plugs and chargers without bumping into each other or fowling on the wall. So often chargers have extended plugs, and christmas lights are the same. This plug has the three sockets all pointing up so whatever you plug in shouldn't get in the way of anything else. Having the three sockets separately switched is a great bonus. Build quality looks good too

Great value.
I bought this as one of my kitchen sockets is broken and I was tired of the trailing wire on my extension lead. Takes 3 plugs individually switched which is helpful. I am very pleased with this adapter and would highly recommend.

Very compact and useful plug adaptor
Actually far better product than I was expecting. Using in utility room where I had to unplug devices when I wanted to use then and now all plugged in and separately switched on when I want. Indicator light on switch for each outlet is great.

Does the job
The 3-way individually switched adapter is so small. Also takes up no space in comparison with previous adapter that had to have lead plugged into wall socket and then lay on floor. The new adapter is so much easier to turn on and off as at higher level and no bending to floor to switch individual appliances on or off.

Great product, 10/10
Excellent adaptor with individual switches. Perfect for difficult spaces and prevents you having to fit and remove a plug each time you need to use it in a standard adaptor. 10/10 from me.

Good Buy
Neat adaptor, useful that you can switch on and off with the switches on the front of the adaptor, good quality pleased with my purchase, and good that you can plug in 3 electrical items.

Hi Chezza,

The adapter is not surge protected.
Thank you for using Q & A.
Hi Bb, thank you for your enquiry.
As long as you don't overload the adaptor with the total combined power consumption.
The adaptor has a maximum peak power capacity of 13A (3,120W / 3.12kW).
Hope this helps and thank you for your purchase.
Hi Tel, thank you for your enquiry.
The adaptor has a fuse (as it is more than 2 socket) which will provide overload protection, but it is _not_ surge protected.
Hope this helps and thank you for your purchase.

Hello Sr1906,
The supplier has advised the following for the Masterplug 3-Way Individually Switched Adaptor:
“ The total amount is 3120 watts as per the fuse that is fitted, this is shared between the 3 sockets and should not be exceeded. ”
Thanks for using Q&A.
Hello Mrsjpc,
The supplier has advised the following for the Masterplug 3-Way Individually Switched Adaptor:
We’d have to advise no for a couple of reasons. (This is also not tested to be used in this way either). A 2-pin adapter will have a 2990w capacity and the 3 way unit could be setup with 3 x 3200w devices that would overload/blow the fuse.
Also the unit is bulky so, if connected to an adapter at one end and a 13A plug device at the other end, it may be too heavy for the wall socket and lever out.
Thank you for using Q&A.
Hi JB, thank you for your enquiry.
In answer to your question - as long as you don't overload the adaptor's maximum power capacity, 13A (3,120W / 3.12kW), then there should not be a problem.
However, this does mean you will need to determine the power consumption of each item and add them together - but it is sounding fairly likely that this will be ok.
Hope this helps.
Hi There

This would depend of the power needed for the items you are plugging in. If overloaded this would cause a fire hazard.
Thanks for using Q&A.
