9 Things You Should Never Plug Into a Power Strip
6. The coffee maker
Same as for the microwave. You might think that a small machine like the coffee maker doesn’t consume anything. In reality, it is quite greedy in electricity with an estimated consumption of 165 kWh/year. So plug this device into a wall outlet.
7. The toaster
Do you toast bread rolls every morning? That means you consume between 500 and 1000 W per year! Yes, that’s a lot for such a small appliance. All this to tell you that you should avoid plugging it into a power strip.
8. Another extension
Do you have a lot of electrical devices to plug in? So you use several extension cords plugged into each other. Very, very bad idea! By doing this, the maximum authorized power of the power strip can very quickly be exceeded.
This type of bad practice is also the cause of many domestic fires!
9. The internet box, the computer and the TV
So the internet box, the computer and the television do not consume a lot of electricity. On the other hand, these devices are particularly sensitive to any electrical problem (power surge, etc.).
So, avoid plugging them into a power strip or equip yourself with a surge protector.
Conclusion There you have it; now you know which electrical devices you should not plug into a power strip.
Even if the probability of fire is fortunately quite low, prevention is better than cure! Because the risks of overheating are very real. A word to the wise…
