Placement of plugs in sockets of an extension cord or surge protector relative to the device case.
-
at an angle. Seats with holes for plugs in such models are rotated at an angle of about 45 ° relative to the plane of the case. Such an option for placing plugs allows for convenient inclusion of plugs so that they do not interfere with each other and do not overlap adjacent slots.
—
Parallel to the body (180°). The holes for the plugs in this layout are arranged in sockets parallel to the body of the extension cord or surge protector. Large plugs are included in them perpendicularly, i.e. at an angle of 90° from the side of the "tail" with a network cable in relation to the axis of the device body.
—
Perpendicular to the body (90°). A fairly rare form factor that involves the placement of seats for a plug with a plug perpendicular to the axis of the device case. As a rule, openings at an angle of 90 ° relative to the housing are found in models for compact flat plugs and in surge protectors of atypical form factor. They can also coexist with sockets where the holes for the plugs are located at an angle.
- At an angle and parallel to the body. Combined variant of the layout of the holes for the plug, combining sockets with seating at an angle and parallel to the axis of the body of the extension cord or surge protector.
- At an
...angle and perpendicular to the body. A variety of network filters and extension cords with different arrangements of holes in the mounting sockets. Most of them are placed at an angle with respect to the axis of the body, and one or more - perpendicular.
