Ratings vary by model. Examples shown include extension cords rated 13A (125V) or 15A (125V), power strips rated about 10A/1,250W, and a replacement cord listing a maximum of 1,875W at 125V. Always verify the exact amperage/ wattage on the specific product label.

Many flat-plug products list safety certifications such as UL or ETL. Protection features commonly include surge protection (joule ratings vary), integrated circuit breakers or overload switches, automatic shutdown, and USB overcurrent/short-circuit protection.

Configurations range from single smart outlets to multi-outlet strips with 3–6 AC outlets. Many include USB ports, from two standard USB ports up to mixes such as two USB-A plus one USB-C, depending on the model.

You’ll find flat heads designed to sit flush, right- or 45°-angled plugs, and 360° rotating flat plugs for flexible routing so the cord can fit neatly behind furniture or in tight spaces.

Joule ratings in these products range roughly from about 300 up to 1,080, depending on the model. Feature sets vary: some include integrated circuit breakers or automatic shutdown, while others are basic strips without surge protection—check the product spec to confirm.

Flat plugs let you plug in behind desks, sofas, and other furniture so items sit closer to the wall. They reduce plug protrusion, free up nearby outlet space, and create a cleaner, tighter setup in tight spaces.
