hello i wanted to ask if the voltage is reduced because i am planning to plug in a power strip and there should not be a large current loss.

When using the Steffen "wireless adapter plug", there are a few aspects to consider to ensure that there are no significant power losses:

## Contact resistances
If you plug a connector strip into the wireless adapter plug, the contact resistances between the plugs and the sockets can lead to a small current loss. However, this effect does not only occur when plug connectors are cascaded, but can also occur when using a single plug connector.

## Self-consumption of the socket outlet
Radio-controlled sockets consume energy themselves, especially when they are ready to receive or switch the power on and off. However, this consumption is relatively low and is typically around 0.5 to 1.5 watts, depending on the model and switching status.

## Power interruption
If the wireless adapter plug interrupts the power, the contact is completely disconnected and the connected device no longer receives any power. This means that there is no additional power loss through the socket itself when it is switched off.

To summarise: The power loss through the use of the wireless adapter plug and a power strip is low and is mainly due to the contact resistances. The socket's own consumption is also minimal and should not normally have a major impact on overall power consumption.
