It is lightweight, has a small footprint for storage and transport, and is designed to withstand day to day knocks far better than domestic products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eLoop through makes scaling easy\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 16 amp loop through means you can run multiple units from one supply when you need more socket count across an area. It keeps setups tidy and avoids messy chains of domestic extensions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eClear “power on” indication\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA green LED power indicator shows at a glance that the unit is live.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy there is no RCBO on this unit\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe are often asked why this product does not include a 30 mA RCBO. In most compliant temporary power setups (including BS 7909 and BS 7671 practices), 16 amp single phase supplies are expected to be protected by a 30 mA RCD upstream. Adding another 30 mA device in this unit would typically put two RCDs in line, which is generally redundant and can introduce nuisance tripping or confusion. This unit is designed to be used with correct upstream protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIP rating note\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the socket covers closed and nothing plugged in, the 13 amp outlets are IP44.
