Never plug these into a power strip:
- Refrigerator (constant cycling load)
- Microwave (high wattage draw)
- Space heater (fire hazard risk)
- Air conditioner (high startup power)
- Toaster / toaster oven (high heat load)
- Coffee maker (strong heating element)
- Hair dryer & styling tools (very high wattage)
- Another power strip (daisy chaining = overload risk)
- Sump pump & heavy-duty tools (require direct outlet)
Tip: These appliances should always be plugged directly into a wall outlet to prevent overloads and fire risk.
