rated at 1,000 watts are connected to the same strip. Together, they demand approximately 3,000 watts when operating simultaneously.
Whether that load is safe depends on the voltage, current rating, power strip specifications, household circuit capacity, and other connected equipment.
A strip rated for a lower load may overheat even though every appliance appears to function normally.
It is particularly important to remember that electrical demand is not determined by the number of plugs alone. Two appliances can use more electricity than six small electronic accessories.
