Q. Is this unit fitted with a heavy duty 13A plug?
A. Hi John. Thank you for your question. This extension cable with hanging workshop energy cube is just supplied with a safety plug like 23-1315.
Q. Does this power cube have an internal fuse?
A. This product is fused in the plug but not at the unit.
This looked like the answer to my garage socket shortage, however, the pins in most of the 6 sockets are very tight. Not so much of a problem in a conventional trailing socket on the ground or on the wall, but when it is suspended in mid-air and dangling from a chain, you have nothing to push against. So, in practice this is very hard to use especially when trying to remove plugs. I don't know if this is just my unit and others will be ok or, if all of these are all made the same. I have had to spend a few hours plugging and unplugging an appliance into all the sockets in turn before suspending this unit in its final intended place in a bid to loosen things up a bit without much success. Not my intended way to spend a Friday night and I feel that I should get out more.
Bought one of these a few years ago for use over an island table, does a good job at a sensible price, i'll be buying more soon for another job.
