Power Strip

What is Power Strip?

A power strip is a type of electrical device that is used to expand the number of available electrical outlets in a given area.

It typically consists of a long, narrow strip of plastic or metal that contains multiple electrical outlets, as well as a cord that plugs into a wall outlet to provide power to those outlets. Power strips are commonly used in offices, homes, and other settings where multiple electrical devices need to be used in close proximity. They are useful for organizing cords and reducing clutter, as well as for providing surge protection to help prevent damage to sensitive electronic equipment. However, it is important to use power strips safely and not overload them with too many devices, as this can lead to overheating and the risk of electrical fires. It is also important to use power strips that have been certified by a recognized testing organization, such as UL (Underwriters Laboratories), to ensure their safety and reliability.
