What are extension leads?

An extension lead is a power distribution unit consisting of a number of sockets, sometimes also called a gang extension. When an extension is required, they are plugged into the mains through a lead and the sockets are able to individually power their respective plugs. This branches out the opportunity for mains sockets to power more than one device at a time. An extension lead would be used in various situations and environments, including in the workplace and domestically.
