Aptech A1005MS five-socket power strip
The Aptech A1005MS is a five-socket mains power strip with an individual switch for each socket and a 3 m cable. Star Tech specifies a 2-pin plug, 10 A rated current, 2500 W maximum load and five-year warranty. Astrix confirms the five sockets, 2-pin plug, 3 m cable and individual switches. This guide identifies the electrical values as seller-listed and does not assume surge suppression, overload protection or grounding.
Five sockets with individual switches
Retailer listings describe five sockets, each controlled by its own switch. Independent switches allow one connected device to be switched off while other compatible devices remain connected. The strip's total load rating is shared across the whole unit: connecting more sockets does not raise the maximum permitted current or wattage. Review the marking on the received unit and the input label for every connected device.
3 m cable and 2-pin plug
The listed cable length is 3 m, providing more reach than a shorter extension when a wall outlet is farther from your desk or equipment. Measure the route and allow slack; do not stretch the cord, run it under rugs, or pinch it behind furniture. The plug is listed as 2-pin. A two-pin connection may not provide a protective earth. Check plug fit and the earthing needs of each appliance; do not use it for equipment that requires a grounded connection, and never force an incompatible plug into a socket.
Electrical rating and combined load
Star Tech lists a 10 A current rating and 2500 W maximum load. These figures describe the total across all sockets, not a separate allowance for each port. Add the expected loads and stay within the lower limit on the strip or appliance labels. Devices with high startup current or specific grounding requirements need particular care. If the physical rating label differs from the online specification, follow the unit label and ask the seller before use.
Warranty and availability
Star Tech lists five-year warranty coverage for the A1005MS. Astrix advertises official warranty but does not show the duration on its exact-model product page. Smart View also lists a five-year warranty and a 10 A / 2500 W load, but its seller terms should be checked directly. Confirm the warranty issuer, claim process, exclusions, invoice requirements and whether switches, cable and sockets are included in coverage.

Check before connecting
Verify the label, plug compatibility, total wattage, socket condition and earthing requirements. This product should not be treated as surge-protected or as a substitute for a correctly earthed outlet. Reviewed exact-model sources do not establish a voltage range, safety shutter, conductor material, country of origin or manufacturer part number. Ask the seller for the exact revision and safety markings when those details matter.
