portable outlet strip

[bbanzai]

Can anyone give me some guidance on where I can find if there is any restrictions on what can be plugged into a portable outlet strip? In particular, can a fridge and a microwave oven be plugged into one in an office enviroment?

Check out the manufactures instructions, they should give you any restrictions to what can be plugged in.

Only with 110.3(B) which requires we follow the listing and labeling of equipment.

UL calls these "relocatable power taps" and more info can be found here:
