Surge Protector Extension Lead UN AL3 3-Socket 3 m Black

The UN AL3 3-Socket 3 m Black surge protector extension lead is a compact power distribution accessory designed for home and office use. It combines three grounded sockets with a 3-metre cable to extend reach from fixed wall outlets and to provide basic surge protection for everyday electronic devices. The unit is finished in black and is intended for situations where multiple devices—such as computers, monitors and printers—need to be powered from a single outlet while retaining a degree of protection against transient overvoltages.

Advantages

This extension lead features three grounded outlets for safe connection of several devices at once and a long 3 m cable that increases placement flexibility without using additional adapters. It provides basic surge protection to reduce the risk of damage from short voltage spikes and helps maintain stable power delivery to connected equipment. The design is compact and low-profile, allowing convenient placement on or behind desks and workstations while keeping cable routing neat.

Suitable for

• Desktop computers, monitors and workstations
• Printers, scanners and small office peripherals
• Chargers for phones, tablets and small consumer electronics
• Home entertainment components with grounded plugs
• Temporary power distribution in work areas or meeting rooms

How to use

Uncoil the 3 m cable and position the unit so that the sockets are accessible while the mains plug reaches the wall outlet without strain. Insert the mains plug firmly into a compatible grounded socket. Connect devices using their grounded plugs into the extension sockets, ensuring each connection is secure. Avoid overloading the unit: check the combined power draw of connected devices and compare it with the ratings on the device or the mains circuit. Keep the extension lead away from sources of heat, moisture and sharp edges that could damage the cable or casing.

Usage recommendations

For reliable operation, use the UN AL3 extension lead indoors only and on properly grounded circuits. Do not expose the unit to water or excessive humidity, and avoid daisy-chaining multiple extension leads or connecting high-power appliances such as heaters, kettles or large air conditioners. Periodically inspect the cable and housing for signs of wear or damage and replace the unit if protective components appear compromised.
