hosszabbítót

Hosszabbító is the Hungarian word for an extension cord or power strip. It is a flexible electrical cable that allows an appliance to be used at a distance from a power outlet. Hosszabbító typically consists of a male plug on one end and one or more female sockets on the other.

These devices are commonly used in homes, offices, and workshops to provide convenient access to electricity. They come in various lengths and configurations, with some featuring multiple outlets to power several devices simultaneously. Safety features such as surge protection, circuit breakers, and child-resistant outlets are often incorporated into more advanced models.

When using a hosszabbító, it is important to consider its power rating and ensure it is not overloaded. Overloading can lead to overheating and pose a fire hazard. It is also advisable to inspect the cable and plugs for any damage before use. Proper storage, such as coiling the cord neatly and keeping it away from moisture, helps prolong its lifespan and maintain safety. Hosszabbítók are essential tools for modern living, offering flexibility in power access for a wide range of electronic devices.
