Living room

Even though power centres are meant to make your desktop area look clutter-free, you can use this integrated charging device almost everywhere. If you place a power centre in the living room, you can keep multiple gadgets on charge there and use one port for turning on the lamp shed. 

If you organise a small house party, a power centre in the living room can help you play music using a music system. At the same time, you can charge a few gadgets as well. So, having power centres in the living room helps you manage your electric plug requirements without making the room look messy. 

Kitchen

Do you love listening to music or podcasts while cooking? If so, you can keep a power centre plugged into one of your kitchen’s socket points and play your favourite tracks while keeping your phone on charge. 

You can also watch videos or listen to a podcast in your kitchen keeping your tablet or laptop on charge. Even if you use two points for charging the gadgets, you will still have one point left for running kitchen appliances. 

Therefore, keeping a power centre in the kitchen helps you in more ways than one. Plus, when your work is over, you can unplug the device and take it elsewhere for use. 

Workstation

Many people work from home these days. If you have a workstation which you use as your private working corner, you can keep a power centre there to use multiple gadgets at the same time. 

Homes generally lack an office-like setup where you get access to multiple sockets adjacent to your workstation. For home office setups, power centres are the best charging devices if you work with multiple gadgets like smartphones, laptops, etc. 

Additionally, the precise shape and design of the 6 and 8-module power centres ensure that your small workspace does not look all tangled up with wires. 

Bedroom

The switchboard on your bedroom’s wall might have one plug point. However, you do not have to worry about charging multiple gadgets at the same time if you have an 8-module power centre in your bedroom. Some high-end power centres come with 3-pin plug points and a USB module. 

You can use the USB port for charging devices like your smartphone. Digital cameras also do not require adapters for charging. You can use the USB module to charge your digital camera. 

Outdoor Area

Indoor spaces at least feature switchboards on the walls where you can get your devices charged. But, when you organise a party outdoors, charging points become a concern.  

With multi-pin power centres, you can deal with this problem effortlessly. Keep a power centre plugged into any of the plug points adjacent to the patio space and use it for playing music using a music system or illuminating the area using lamps and lights. 

How to Choose a Power Centre Wisely

Choosing the best power centre, keeping your requirements in mind is critical.  When you buy a power centre online, keep the following aspects in mind. 

Number of Ports

Before you invest in a power centre, make sure to check how many ports it has. If you use multiple devices at the same time, you may need an 8-module power centre which could accommodate 3 gadgets at the same time. On the other hand, if you need only two ports, settling for a 6-module device is always a better choice. 

Design and Colour

The design and colour of the power centre you buy are important features if you are trying to make your workstation look cleaner and aesthetically appealing. Choose a white or chic grey power centre based on the colour theme of your workplace or home. 

Amperage and Wattage

The amperage and wattage of the power centres determine the appliances it can support.  A power centre with low amperage is never a perfect one for running kitchen appliances like a mixer or a blender. 

On the other hand, if you need additional ports only for charging your smartphones and tablets, you can settle for a 6A power centre without any worry. 

Installation

Always settle for a power centre that can be mounted on the wall. This way you can make your workstation look more spacious and use the table surface for keeping other essentials. 

Even if you use the power centre for any other space, you can keep it mounted on the wall. When you need to travel with it, you can get it off the wall without much ado. 

There is no doubt that buying power centres for home is a wise investment. Legrand has a varied collection of high-end power centres featuring 1.8-metre cords and ports of different wattages and amperages. You will also find integrated charging devices with plug points and USB modules in its collection
