Product Features
Technical Overview
Engineered for stable 120V AC power delivery, the PS-6 accepts standard NEMA 5-15P plugs and distributes power through six NEMA 5-15R outlets. The 15A maximum input current and 60 Hz frequency compatibility ensure compatibility with common North American office electronics.
Safety features include a resettable circuit breaker that trips during overload conditions, preventing damage to the strip and connected devices. The power switch allows users to cut power to all outlets without unplugging, reducing standby consumption and simplifying shutdown procedures.
Relevant factors for this section include Plug/Connector Type, Receptacles, Cord Length, Input Voltage. When those points are considered together, they give buyers a clearer picture of how the product is equipped, how it fits into deployment, and what kind of day-to-day role it is meant to support.
Key Product Advantages
This industrial-grade power strip combines robust construction with essential safety and convenience features for professional settings. The compact design maximizes outlet density while maintaining a low profile that fits easily under desks or behind equipment.

Deployment / Use Cases
The PS-6 power strip serves as a practical power distribution solution for various business IT scenarios where additional outlets are needed near existing receptacles. Its industrial construction makes it suitable for environments beyond standard office use.
Common applications include workstation power expansion for computers, monitors, printers, and chargers; networking closet deployments for routers, switches, and modems; and workshop or lab settings for powering tools, test equipment, or lighting. The 4-foot cord provides sufficient reach from wall outlets to equipment racks or desks without requiring extension cords.
Office Workstation Expansion
Add six grounded outlets to support computer systems, dual monitors, desk lamps, phone chargers, and other peripherals from a single wall outlet.
Equipment Rack Support
Power networking gear, small servers, or AV equipment in rack or cabinet installations where outlet access is limited.
Physical Profile
The power strip measures 9.45 inches in depth, 1.70 inches in width, and 1.20 inches in height, creating a low-profile form factor that fits neatly under monitors or behind furniture. The gray plastic housing provides a neutral appearance that blends with office decor while offering durability against daily use. Weighing approximately 12.32 ounces, the unit remains stable during cord insertion and removal without sliding on surfaces.

FAQ
What type of plug does this power strip use?
The PS-6 features a standard NEMA 5-15P plug, which is the common three-prong grounded plug used throughout North America for 120V AC outlets. This plug type connects directly to standard wall receptacles without adapters.
How many devices can I connect to this power strip?
This power strip provides six NEMA 5-15R outlets, allowing you to connect up to six devices simultaneously. Each outlet accepts standard three-prong plugs from computers, monitors, chargers, and other office equipment.
Does this power strip have surge protection?
The PS-6 includes a resettable circuit breaker for overload protection but does not feature surge suppression components. The circuit breaker protects against excessive current draw that could cause overheating, while surge protection would require additional circuitry to guard against voltage spikes.
What is the maximum power capacity of this unit?
This power strip has a 15A maximum input current at 120V AC, providing a power rating of 1.80 kW (1800 watts). This capacity supports typical office equipment loads including computers, displays, networking gear, and peripherals within standard circuit limitations.
Can I mount this power strip on a wall or under a desk?
The PS-6 features a flat-bottom design that sits securely on surfaces, but it does not include built-in mounting brackets or keyhole slots for wall installation. For under-desk mounting, users can employ adhesive strips or third-party mounting solutions that accommodate its 9.45-inch length and 1.20-inch height.
What warranty coverage does Tripp Lite provide for this product?
Tripp Lite by Eaton backs the PS-6 power strip with a lifetime limited warranty. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for the product's usable life, with support available through Eaton's customer service channels for warranty claims and replacement if needed.
