Overview
GE turns one wall socket into a row of grounded three-wire outlets with this general purpose strip. A power switch with a built in circuit breaker cuts power on overload, and screw slots let it hang on a wall or bench.
Overload protection and wall mounting in a short, slim strip make it useful in a garage or workshop. Despite the category it is listed under, it is not a surge suppressor and gives no protection when the line spikes.
Who it's for
Workbenches, garages and apartment corners short on outlets are where it earns its place, mounted to the wall with screws. Owners of computers, game consoles or home theater gear should buy a rated surge protector instead.
Pros and cons
- Built in breaker trips on overload
- Screw slots for wall or bench mounting
- Six grounded three-wire outlets
- On and off power switch
- No surge suppression at all
- Short cord limits placement
- Outlet spacing for bulky adapters not listed
Performance notes
The breaker in the switch is the only protection: when the combined load on the outlets passes its rating, it trips and cuts power until reset. Spikes and surges on the line pass straight through, because the strip is not a surge suppressor. The short cord means the strip mounts near the wall socket it feeds.

Frequently asked questions
How do I reset the GE 14831 after the breaker trips?
Unplug some of the load, then reset through the power switch, which houses the integrated circuit breaker. If it trips again, the devices plugged in are drawing more than the 15 A rating.
Can I plug a computer into the GE 14831?
It will power one, but GE states the strip is not a surge suppressor, so a power surge reaches the computer unchecked.
Will the GE 14831 run an air conditioner?
The spec sheet lists air conditioners as compatible devices, but the total load must stay within the 15 A breaker rating, and a large unit sharing the strip can trip it.
Is the GE 14831 safety certified?
The title says it is UL listed.
