There will always be situations when you need an extra socket, or electrical access in a spot with no supply. As an immediate fix, it's handy to have an extension lead to hand. Choose the lead that can safely power your appliances - this is usually up to 3kW. Domestic options range from a simple 4-gang unit to ones with spike surge protection, useful for powering electronics. For heavy duty use or when a longer lead is necessary, a heavy duty extension reel is perfect to power tools in the garden or workshop.
