💨 Abstract

The article warns against plugging high-power and constantly on devices into extension cords, as this can lead to overheating and potential fires. Appliances like fridges, microwaves, and space heaters should be plugged directly into wall outlets to avoid electrical hazards. Additionally, using extension cords outdoors or 'daisy-chaining' multiple power strips can also pose significant risks, including electric shocks and voided warranties.
