Those are three different entries in a product catalogue; each one comes in a couple of different variants.

I'm including them all in the same question, so to convey the context, and the need for precision that it entails.

"Power strip", I know... But then what?

The term "power strip" is used interchangeably with the term "multi socket". However, a "πολύπριζο υπέρτασης" is usually simply called a "surge protector".
