Power plug splitter Elgotech R-20CA — 2-socket (with/without grounding) compact adapter

Elgotech R-20CA is a compact power plug splitter that converts one wall outlet into two sockets, offering a simple solution when additional power points are needed. The adapter is designed to accept standard plugs and can be supplied in versions with or without grounding, allowing flexible use in homes, offices, and other indoor environments where small electrical devices must be powered from a single outlet.

Advantages

The compact form factor occupies minimal space while providing two independent sockets, making it convenient for tight outlet areas and behind furniture. Its simple plug-in design requires no installation or tools and preserves the original outlet orientation. Available grounding option increases safety for grounded devices and reduces the risk of electrical shock when used with compatible equipment.

Suitable for

• Powering lamps and bedside lights
• Connecting phone and laptop chargers
• Supplying small household appliances such as alarm clocks and radios
• Extending a single outlet for office equipment like monitors and routers

Key specifications

• Form factor: compact plug-in adapter providing two socket outlets
• Socket compatibility: standard domestic plugs (type depends on local mains standard)
• Versions: available with grounding contact or without grounding contact
• Intended use: indoor use for low- to moderate-power devices
• Construction: single-piece plastic housing designed for wall outlet mounting

How to use

Insert the adapter directly into a compatible wall outlet so that it sits securely in the socket. Plug the electrical devices into the two available sockets, ensuring that the combined power draw of connected devices does not exceed the circuit limits and that grounded devices are used with the grounding version of the adapter. Do not force incompatible plug types into the sockets and avoid using the adapter in wet or humid conditions.

Usage recommendations

Use the adapter for low- and moderate-power devices such as chargers, lamps and small electronics. Avoid connecting high-power appliances like heaters, kettles or large kitchen equipment. If using the grounding version, ensure the wall outlet provides a functional earth connection. Regularly inspect the adapter and outlet for damage and discontinue use if overheating, discoloration or looseness is observed.
