Description

The Mercury is an 8-gang extension lead with built-in surge protection, individual neon indicators on each outlet and a 2m mains cable. Each of the eight UK 3-pin sockets carries an independent red neon that illuminates when the socket is switched on, making it clear at a glance which outlets are live. The surge protection circuitry monitors incoming voltage and diverts spikes to earth, protecting connected equipment from mains surges.

Designed for workshop benches, office desks, home studios and anywhere multiple appliances or devices need to be powered from a single wall outlet, the Mercury sits flat on a surface or can be wall-mounted using the two keyhole slots on the rear. The 13A total load capacity is shared across all eight outlets, so the combined draw of all connected devices must not exceed 3,120W. The 2m cable gives reach from a wall socket to the centre of a standard desk or workbench without needing to position furniture against the wall.

The white thermoplastic housing measures 330 x 120 x 30mm and weighs 420g, giving it enough mass to sit stable on a desk without sliding when plugs are inserted or removed. The non-rewireable construction meets BS1363-2 and BS5733 standards for UK mains extension leads. The surge indicator LED on the front panel confirms that the protection circuitry is active; if this LED goes out, the surge protection has been compromised and the unit should be replaced.

Frequently Asked

What does the surge protection cover?

The surge protection monitors incoming mains voltage and diverts sudden spikes to earth, protecting connected devices from voltage surges caused by lightning strikes on local infrastructure or switching events on the grid. The surge indicator LED confirms the protection is active. If this LED goes out, the protection circuitry has absorbed a surge and the unit should be replaced.

Can all eight sockets be used simultaneously?

Yes, but the total combined load across all eight outlets must not exceed 13A (3,120W at 240V). If you connect eight devices each drawing 5A, the total would exceed the rated capacity and trip the circuit breaker or damage the extension lead.

What do the individual neon indicators show?

Each of the eight outlets has its own red neon indicator that illuminates when that specific socket is switched on. This allows you to see at a glance which outlets are live and which are switched off, useful when managing multiple devices on a single extension lead.

Can it be mounted on a wall?

Yes. The rear panel has two keyhole slots allowing the extension lead to be screwed to a wall, workbench partition or underside of a desk. The 2m cable hangs from whichever end the plug is positioned.
