Save energy by automatically turning off unused outlets—the master outlet controls the follower outlets and shuts off power to those outlets when a device plugged into the master is turned off. For example, plug a main device, such as a computer, into the master outlet; plug accessory devices, such as a monitor and printer, into the follower outlets. Turn the main device on and off to control power to the accessory devices. They also have independent outlets that are always on. Sliding outlet covers protect outlets from dust when not in use. Surge suppression protects devices from voltage spikes. The surge rating indicates how much energy the outlet strip can absorb before it needs to be replaced. Telephone connections connect to a land line. Coaxial connections connect to F-type coaxial cords for video. A circuit breaker prevents damage from current overload and short circuits.

The outlets on these reels have covers to keep out water and dust when not in use. They include an oil- and water-resistant extension cord that also acts as a power cord. Set the brake to prevent cords from unwinding.

Attach the wires in a power cord to these reels for a permanent connection, then plug an extension cord into the reel’s outlets. Outlet covers keep out water and dust when not in use. Set the brake to prevent cords from unwinding.
