The twin sockets accept standard UK BS1363 plugs and are positioned side-by-side on a compact white moulded housing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for desk setups, workbenches, bedside tables and kitchen worktops where two appliances need power from a single wall socket without reaching for a multi-gang tower or trailing a longer cable across the floor. The 2m cable length allows the extension to sit on a desk or worktop while plugged into a socket mounted at skirting level, or to reach from a wall socket behind furniture to a position 1.5-2m away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe white cable and housing blend into neutral-toned walls and furniture without standing out visually. The non-rewireable plug is moulded onto the cable during manufacture, so there are no removable screws or accessible internal wiring once the product leaves the factory. The 13A rating means each socket can handle appliances drawing up to 3,120W, though the combined load across both sockets should not exceed 13A (3,120W total) when both are in use simultaneously.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.0m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's the total load across both sockets?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach socket is rated at 13A, but the combined load across both sockets must not exceed 13A (3,120W total). For example, you can run a 1,500W kettle and a 1,000W toaster simultaneously, but not two 2,000W appliances at the same time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the plug rewireable?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The plug is moulded onto the cable during manufacture and cannot be opened or rewired. This is a safety feature that prevents tampering and reduces the risk of incorrect wiring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it have surge protection or switches on the sockets?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The Mercury is a basic extension lead with no surge protection, no individual socket switches and no indicator lights.
