great little adaptor
i have several of these and find them very useful.,especially for charging small devices. the switch ability is a great idea

Good
Works perfectly, ideal for my socket which has a skirting board deeper than the plate but this adaptor doesn’t extend below the plate so enables me to use an otherwise useless plug socket. I like having individual on/off switches for each plug space, though the LED light indicators seem unnecessary.

Works Fine
Works as intended - only issue is that the switches themselves get quite warm under load.

Fine functionality but not the most solid
The multi socket works but it's not the most durable. I was given one with a broken switch which thankfully I noticed while still in the building, and was able to swap it out for another.

Just right for my room which had limited space for extra sockets and each one individually swit.

While possible it may overheat.

Hi Chezza,
Masterplug 3-Way Individually Switched Adaptor.
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.
Hi TA, thank you for your enquiry.

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.

Not it's not suitable. "The Barbados plug is different so would not fit".

Hi Anagram
Having checked, the Masterplug 3-Way Individually Switched Adaptor would NOT be suitable to be used in Switzerland.
Hope this helps.
