How to use

Choose a firm but soft area of soil free from buried utilities and push the ground spike into the ground until the housing is stable and upright. Connect the supply cable to the socket input following the manufacturer's guidance for safe outdoor connections, and ensure cable routing avoids trip hazards and water pooling. Insert plugs of the devices to be powered into the two sockets and switch the power on if the connected supply includes a switch. After use, disconnect appliances, remove the unit from the ground, dry it if necessary and store in a dry place.
