A distributor is proposed, comprising a power connection having a plug (1) and being connected to at least two socket connectors (3) via an electric conductor (2). In order to provide the highest level of variability concerning the extension length it is proposed that the socket connectors (3) are associated with separate sockets (4) which can be detachably interconnected or detachably connected to a housing (6) and which are each connected one to the other or to the housing (6) by an extension lead (5).
