Safety Precautions

  • Proper Installation: Ensure that the extender extension is securely and properly plugged into the wall outlet. Do not use excessive force, and make sure it fits snugly without wobbling.
  • Proper Grounding: If the extender extension has a grounding prong, insert it into a three-pronged, grounded outlet. Do not use adapters to eliminate the grounding prong.
  • Do Not Overload: Avoid overloading the extender extension by plugging in too many devices or high-power appliances that exceed its capacity. Check the maximum load capacity, usually indicated on the device, and make sure it is not exceeded.
  • Cord Management: Keep cords organized and free from damage, pinch points, or excessive bending. Damaged cords can be a safety hazard.
  • Regular Inspections: Periodically inspect the extender extension for any visible damage, including frayed wires, damaged plugs, or cracked casing. If you find any issues, stop using the device and replace it.
  • Proper Use: Use the extender extension only for its intended purpose, which is to distribute electrical power safely. Avoid using it for purposes it was not designed for, such as high-power appliances like space heaters or power tools.
  • Positioning: Place the extender extension in a location with proper ventilation, and avoid covering it with objects. This prevents overheating and reduces the risk of fire.
  • Water and Moisture: Keep the extender extension and connected devices away from water and moisture to prevent electrical shock and damage.
  • Child Safety: If you have young children, consider using childproof outlet covers or placing the extender extension out of their reach to prevent accidents.
  • Unplug When Not in Use: When you’re not using the extender extension or connected devices, unplug them to conserve energy and reduce the risk of electrical issues.
  • Emergency Procedures: Familiarize yourself with the location of your circuit breaker or fuse box in case you need to shut off power in an emergency.

  • Cleaning: Keep the extender clean and free from dust and debris. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the surface and remove any dirt. Do not use water or liquid cleaners, as they can damage the electrical components.
  • Cord Management: Keep the cords organized and untangled to prevent tripping hazards and reduce the risk of cord damage. Avoid excessive bending or twisting of the cords.
  • Proper Storage: When not in use, store the extender in a dry and safe location, away from potential hazards. Storing it properly can prevent physical damage and dust accumulation.
  • Ventilation: Ensure that the extender has proper ventilation and is not obstructed by objects or covered. Adequate ventilation helps prevent overheating.
  • Avoid Overloading: Do not overload the extender extension by plugging in too many high-power devices or appliances that exceed its capacity. Always check the maximum load rating and adhere to it.

Troubleshooting

No Power Output:

  • Check if the extender extension is securely plugged into the wall outlet or power source. Ensure that it’s fitted snugly and not loose.
  • Try plugging a different device or appliance into the extender extension to determine if the issue is with the extension or the original device.

Loose or Damaged Plugs:

  • Inspect the plugs of the devices you’re connecting to the extender. Loose or damaged plugs may not make proper contact with the extension, resulting in a lack of power.
  • Check for bent or damaged pins on the plugs and straighten or replace them as needed.

Overloading and Tripped Circuit Breaker:

  • If the extender extension repeatedly shuts off when you connect devices, you may be overloading it. Disconnect some devices or appliances to reduce the load. Some extensions have a built-in circuit breaker that trips to prevent overloading.

Outlet Compatibility:

  • Ensure that the devices you’re plugging into the extender are compatible with the type of outlets on the extension. Incompatible devices may not fit correctly or may not work as expected.

Damaged or Frayed Cords:

  • Inspect the extension’s cord for any visible damage, frayed wires, or exposed conductors. If you find any, stop using the extender immediately and replace it.

  • Check if the extender has any safety features, such as a reset button or surge protection. If it does, ensure that these features are not triggered or compromised.

Outlet Extender Positioning:

  • Some outlet extenders have a swivel or rotating feature that can affect the connection. Make sure the extender is positioned correctly to allow devices to plug in securely.

Compatibility with Grounded Outlets:

  • Ensure that the extender is compatible with grounded (three-prong) outlets. Using it in non-grounded outlets may lead to compatibility issues.

Contact Customer Support:
