Greek term

πολύπριζο / πολύπριζο ασφαλείας / πολύπριζο υπέρτασης

Greek to English Tech/Engineering Electronics / Elect Eng
Those are three different entries in a product catalogue; each one comes in a couple of different variants.

I'm including them all in the same question, so to convey the context, and the need for precision that it entails.

"Power strip", I know... But then what?
Proposed translations (English)
4 +1 Multi socket/safety multi socket/surge protected multi socket
3 power strip / safety power strip / surge protected power strip

Peter Close Feb 10, 2017:
I agree that this should be three separate questions (unless, perhaps, if the words are all written together in your source text in precisely the same way as your question).
rokotas Feb 10, 2017:
I answer in a discussion first, because I think that you should enter 3 separate questions. My answer is Power strip, safety power strip and surge-protected power strip.

The term "power strip" is used interchangeably with the term "multi socket". However, a "πολύπριζο υπέρτασης" is usually simply called a "surge protector".
