Frequently asked in Hillsboro
What is an electrical outlet extender, and when should it be used?
An electrical outlet extender, often a power strip or a multi-plug adapter, allows you to plug multiple devices into a single outlet. While convenient for temporary use, they should not be considered a permanent solution for insufficient outlets. Overloading an extender can be a fire hazard. If you frequently find yourself needing extenders, it's a strong indication that you may need additional permanent outlets installed by a qualified electrician to safely accommodate your power needs.
