	~~Brief introductory summary of the documented artifact~~.		The '''Globe Electric 12-003-7MS''' is a direct-plug surge protector manufactured by [[Globe Electric]]. The design incorporates six grounded outlets arranged on two independently adjustable outlet banks flanking a central status-indicator section.

	[[File:~~Main_Image~~.jpg\|center\|600px\|~~Primary~~ view of the ~~documented artifact~~.]]		The documented example is notable for its wall-hugger form factor, rotating outlet assemblies, and compact direct-plug construction intended to expand receptacle capacity without requiring an attached power cord.

			[[File:surge_globe_12-003-7MS_main_01.jpg\|center\|600px\|Overall view of the Globe Electric 12-003-7MS surge protector.]]


	== Overview ==		== Overview ==

	~~General description~~ of ~~the product, manufacturer, purpose, historical significance, and why this example is noteworthy~~.		The Globe Electric 12-003-7MS is a consumer-oriented direct-plug surge protector designed to increase the number of available grounded receptacles while maintaining a compact footprint.

			Unlike conventional surge protectors that utilize an attached power cord, the 12-003-7MS plugs directly into a wall receptacle and distributes power through six grounded outlets arranged in two three-outlet rotating banks.

	~~== Historical Context ==~~		The design incorporates independent SURGE and GROUND status indicators together with Globe Electric branding molded into the central section of the enclosure. The adjustable outlet assemblies appear intended to improve accommodation of oversized plugs, transformers, and power adapters.

			The documented example represents an example of the wall-tap surge-protection products that became increasingly common in residential and home-office environments during the 2000s and 2010s.


	~~Describe where the product fits within its manufacturer lineup, market segment, technological era, or product family.~~		== Historical Context ==

	~~Examples:~~		The 12-003-7MS appears to have been marketed as a space-saving alternative to traditional corded surge protectors. The product combines surge protection and outlet expansion in a single direct-plug assembly intended for residential and consumer-electronics applications.

	* Consumer vs commercial product		The independently adjustable outlet banks distinguish the unit from many fixed-outlet wall-tap surge protectors. The design allows connected devices to occupy different orientations while reducing interference between adjacent plugs and power adapters.
	* OEM vs retail product
	* Relationship to ~~recalls~~
	* Introduction of new features
	* Differences from previous generations

			Globe Electric continues to market surge protectors, power strips, outlet adapters, and related power-distribution products as part of its contemporary product lineup.
