CCCEI 20A Heavy-Duty Metal Power Strip 8-Outlet 6ft

CCCEI's 20-amp heavy-duty metal power strip provides eight grounded outlets, a 6 ft 12 AWG cord, surge protection and a 20A circuit breaker for workshop and industrial use.

This rugged power strip is built for garages, workshops and small commercial spaces where multiple high-draw tools and appliances must run safely from a single feed. Its metal housing, 12-gauge cord and mixed outlet types (5-20R and 6-20R with a 5-15P plug) let you connect 15A and 20A equipment while the integrated surge protection and resettable breaker reduce overload risk. The strip is designed for fixed placement with wall-mount tabs and a 6-foot reach for flexible setup.

How does this power strip handle high-current tools?

The CCCEI strip uses a 12 AWG, 6-foot cord rated for 20A to minimize voltage drop and heat during sustained loads. A 20A circuit breaker trips under overload and can be reset, while the 4800-joule surge module helps absorb larger transient spikes.

• 12 AWG cord for sustained 20A loads and cooler operation
• 20A resettable circuit breaker for overload protection
• 4800J surge rating to mitigate voltage spikes
• Supports both 5-15P and 6-20R equipment via built-in outlets

Can I use this strip on a standard household outlet?

Yes — the strip includes a standard 5-15P plug so you can connect it to a typical 15A household receptacle. When used on a 15A circuit, do not exceed 1875 watts total to avoid tripping the branch circuit.

• 5-15P plug for standard 15A receptacles
• Warning: limit total draw to 1875W on 15A circuits
• 6-20R outlet slots allow connection of 20A appliances when on a 20A circuit

What makes the design suitable for workshop and garage environments?

The enclosure is a durable metal housing made to resist impact and wear common in shops. Wall-mounting slots let you secure the strip out of the way, and the long 6 ft cord helps reach bench outlets without stretching cords across the floor.

• Metal chassis for improved durability vs. plastic strips
• Mounting tabs for secure, out-of-the-way installation
• 6-foot length for flexible placement near workstations
• Clearly labeled outlets for easy equipment organization

How does the outlet mix and adapter benefit my appliances?

The unit combines 5-20R and 6-20R outlets with a standard 5-15P plug so you can power a variety of devices without extra adapters. The T-slot style 6-20R accepts wider-prong 20A plugs commonly found on heavier tools and some appliances.

• Eight total grounded outlets to power multiple devices
• 6-20R slots accept 20A appliance plugs for higher-draw tools
• Useful when switching between shop tools and smaller electronics

Who is this for? If you run a home workshop, small repair shop, garage or hobby space and need to power multiple medium- to high-draw tools safely, this CCCEI heavy-duty power strip is designed for that environment. It’s best for fixed installations where a durable metal housing, dependable 20A capacity, surge suppression and wall mounting are more valuable than a lightweight, portable consumer surge bar. Avoid permanent outdoor exposure unless you provide weatherproof protection.
