In the U.S., UL Standard 1363 prohibits the cascading of relocatable power
taps (i.e., "portable outlet strips"). Many municipal ordinances
incorporate Standard 1363 into their local codes. Outside of a brief
mention in Article 220 regarding multi-outlet assemblies, I don't believe
the NEC directly addresses the use of relocatable power taps since the NEC
is designed as an installation standard, and not a product standard, like
UL.
