The moulded white plug and outlet block carry standard UK 3-pin sockets wired to BS1363\/A, providing two additional power points from a single wall socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for home, office and light commercial use, the 5m cable length suits positioning appliances and devices away from fixed wall sockets without needing multiple leads. The 13A rating handles standard household loads up to 3,120W per outlet, making it suitable for lamps, monitors, chargers, kitchen appliances and power tools within the rating limit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe white moulded construction is non-rewireable, meaning the plug and cable are sealed as a single unit for safety and tamper resistance. The extension lead conforms to BS1363\/A, the British Standard for 13A plugs, socket-outlets and adaptors, ensuring compatibility with UK electrical systems and safety requirements.\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\u003e5.0m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the total load capacity?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe extension lead is rated at 13A across both sockets combined, not 13A per socket. The combined load of all devices plugged into the two outlets must not exceed 13A (3,120W at 240V). Exceeding this creates a fire risk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the cable be repaired if damaged?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The Mercury is a non-rewireable extension lead, meaning the plug, cable and outlet block are moulded as a sealed unit. If the cable or plug is damaged, the entire lead must be replaced rather than repaired.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it have surge protection?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. This is a basic extension lead providing additional socket outlets and cable length. It does not include surge protection, spike suppression or filtering. For sensitive electronics, consider a surge-protected extension lead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it suitable for outdoor use?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The Mercury carries no IP rating and is designed for dry indoor use only. For outdoor or wet environments, use an extension lead rated IP44 or higher.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AVSL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45313430913291,"sku":"429.743UK","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/429743UK_CO1_3a02fe1b-ea51-4759-8497-80e68a8291bb.jpg?v=1715192844","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/mercury-2-gang-extension-lead-5m-white","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
