Socket board

How many consumers can be connected to a socket strip? How do you integrate the power strips into office furniture? You can find out in this eibabo® catalogue, and find the right product for you from the large selection of socket strips. Socket strips are also referred to as multiple sockets or power strips. These provide a connection to the power grid for several electrical consumers with a standardized plug connection. In contrast, an extension cord usually only has a single connection.

Which criteria are important for the purchase of a power strip?

A power strip is a relatively simple tool for expanding the electrical installation. Nevertheless, it is advisable to pay attention to a few basic things. These are:

  • Sufficient number of slots
  • Stable material quality of cable, plug and sockets
  • The presence of surge protection
  • Specification of a test mark such as the GS seal or the VDE seal
  • An adequate IP rating for the intended use
  • Additional equipment (switches, child protection and so on)

 

How many devices can be connected to a power strip?

In principle, the number plays a subordinate role. It depends on the sum of the power. Please note that under no circumstances should too many powerful consumers be connected to a socket strip. Remember that a device doesn't have to be big to require large amounts of power. You should therefore not connect high-power devices such as refrigerators, washing machines, dryers, space heaters, air conditioners or ovens to a power strip. Small consumers such as lamps, computers, entertainment devices or printers do not pose a problem.

 


TIP:

The connected loads should not exceed a combined output of around 2300W at 10A or 3600W at 16A measured at 230V mains voltage.


 

Please make sure that you do not connect multiple socket strips in a row. Otherwise the resistance (impedance) could become too large due to the concatenation.

Can socket strips also be sources of danger?

As long as you are using a power strip properly, there is nothing to worry about. Pay attention to the performance of the connected devices and to a safe laying of the cable. Never lay a line under a carpet that many people walk over every day. Over time, this can cause the wires in the line to break, heat up, and cause sparks. Check the cable and the power plug of the strip regularly. If you find any damage, replace the power strip.

What types and equipment are possible with socket strips?

Combinations of different equipment features are also often available. At eibabo® you can get socket strips with switches and overvoltage protection or master/slave socket strips with switches, among other things. Further explanations would be, for example:

  • Switch, toggle switch or foot switch
  • timers
  • Overvoltage protection
  • child lock
  • Master/slave power strips

 

Or the following statements:

  • 19 inch power strips
  • ALU socket strips
  • Outdoor sockets and garden sockets or combination plugs
  • Desk boxes and table sockets
  • Energy cube (SCHUKO or up to 400V CEE)
  • Multiple crafting bars
  • Socket strips for IEC cold devices
  • socket towers
  • surge outlets

 

What are the advantages of power strips with surge protection?

Power strips with overvoltage protection protect connected devices from damage because voltage peaks are reduced. An upstream coarse protection in the meter cabinet and medium protection in the electrical distribution is also advisable.

 


TIP:

We recommend the use of surge protection if you supply valuable technology with the additional sockets.


 

A surge protector has another protective element that absorbs additional current. These can be current fluctuations or voltage peaks, which could otherwise damage or destroy your connected electronics.

What are master/slave power strips?

Power can be saved with master/slave socket strips. An integrated electronic circuit detects whether power is flowing through the master socket. If power is present at the master socket, the slave sockets are activated. If no more current flows through the master socket, the slave sockets switch off. The typical application is a computer and its connected peripheral devices. If the computer is switched on via the master socket, monitors, scanners and printers also start. Turning off the computer also disables all other devices, avoiding going into sleep mode.

What do I use 19 inch power strips for?

19 inches is a standard installation size for server cabinets. If you want to install many devices in your server cabinet, you need an adequate power supply. With a 19-inch socket strip, up to 10 devices can be connected. The socket strip is adapted to the profile rail of the 19-inch server cabinet and can be mounted directly.

We recommend

In order to set up additional protection, we also recommend an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) in addition to integrated overvoltage protection.


You can also get high-quality UPS systems in the eibabo® shop. Use our intelligent search.

What options do I have for permanent installation of power strips?

You need electricity at practically every workplace. With socket strips for mounting on, under or in a desk, you can create connection points for monitors, printers, beamers and telephones. So you don't have to crawl under the desk every time you want to connect something. In addition, the connections don't get dusty as quickly because they are easy to access for cleaning or are integrated into a housing. In addition to the desired number of power connections, other interfaces (USB, HDMI and others) are often available. In addition to mounting on or under the tabletop, it is sometimes possible to retrofit it by drilling or cutting out the tabletop.

With socket units you remain flexible. These are housings that you can individually equip with suitable inserts. This is how you put together the perfect supply bar yourself.
