Pluginpower.com, the e-commerce branch of leading power quality management solutions provider Advance-Galatrek, is offering free delivery on all equipment ordered through its Web Site.

www.pluginpower.com features a wide range of products designed to protect sensitive electrical and electronic equipment - including computers and communications devices - from damage caused by surges and interruptions in the mains power supply.

The Site has been designed from the outset to allow easy online ordering of products, enabling users to make payment by credit card or, alternatively, apply online for a pluginpower.com credit account, subject to status.

By offering free delivery on all items ordered, the Site is extending its commitment providing customers with the best possible value, in conjunction with superior service, when compared to other retailers and suppliers.

Using the Internet as a distribution channel for products that have traditionally been seen as largely back office systems allows the Site to take advantage of the lower fixed costs inherent in e-commerce delivery, to enable the Site to offer the best possible value, combined with a hassle free purchasing experience.

Products showcased on the Site include Uninterruptible Power Systems (UPS), Power Conditioners, Automatic Voltage Stabilisers (AVS) and Transient Voltage Surge Suppressors (TVSS).

These items will be of particular interest to consumers and small/home office workers, which are particularly susceptible to costly equipment damage due to variations in the mains voltage supply.

In addition, these groups are also vulnerable to the likely loss of critical information and mission-critical data, as a result of momentary or longer duration breaks in the mains supply.

As well as offering free delivery, pluginpower.com also offers its customers a completely customised shopping service, where products are grouped together depending on their particular application and likely target sector.

Best sellers for the smaller office market are proving to be UPS devices such as Pinups for PC, and Mac Dialog, designed to complement the styling and appearance of the Apple iMac.

The large range of power strips, intended to protect valuable electronics and modems from the dangers of lightning strikes and other transient voltage surges, are also expected to be popular.

Commenting on this latest offering from Pluginpower.com, Advance-Galatrek joint Managing Director Robin Koffler said: 'The launch of our e-commerce Site earlier in the year proved that there was a definite market for the delivery of high quality power protection goods over the Internet.

By offering free delivery on all items purchased from www.pluginpower.com, we are providing a further incentive for consumers to visit the Site, and to shop online in a hassle-free environment.

This latest marketing initiative consolidates Pluginpower.com's position as a leading e-commerce resource, and reinforces the breadth of Advance-Galatrek's offerings in the business to business and consumer markets.'.
