9 Things You Should Never Plug Into A Power Strip

“Be cautious when using power strips,” warns a recent article, highlighting the dangers of overloading them. It stresses checking the power strip’s capacity, usually listed on the cable, before connecting devices. The article outlines nine items that should never be plugged into a power strip.

High-power appliances like ovens, refrigerators, and washing machines require dedicated outlets and circuits. “Plugging these into a power strip can lead to problems,” the article states. Similarly, heating devices, such as space heaters, and kitchen appliances like microwaves, coffee makers, and toasters, draw too much power for safe use with power strips.

Stacking power strips by plugging one into another is another hazardous practice, which can lead to fires or electrical issues. Additionally, sensitive electronics like computers and routers should avoid power strips due to the risk of surges.

In summary, to ensure safety, avoid overloading power strips and use them appropriately.
