Eat hot pot at home and then have a fire?

Index > Power Life > Electrical Safety

Avoid power overload when eating hot pot. 

A fire broke out in a household in Taichung. Fortunately, the police rescued it properly. After investigation, it turned out that the owner's son was cooking the hot pot upstairs at the time. It was suspected that the use of high-power electrical appliances such as induction cookers and ovens at the same time led to excessive power consumption and the wires went out. How to avoid it? ⚠ Do not use multiple electrical appliances with large power consumption at the same time at the same outlet. ⚠ Try to choose an extension cable with a fuse safety device. When the capacity is overloaded, the power switch will automatically cut off.
