  1. Washing machine and dryer: too heavy a load

     

    • These appliances require a stable and powerful power supply. A conventional multi-plug is not suitable for this demand, which can lead to power cuts or even long-term damage to your electrical installation.

      Solution Solution: Check that your washing machine and dryer are connected to a circuit that meets the applicable electrical standards.

      1. Iron: a dangerous peak consumption

      An iron heats up quickly and consumes a lot of energy in a short time. An unsuitable multi-stage risks overheating, which can cause a melting of the cables and a start of fire.

      Solution: Plug your iron directly into a wall outlet and unplug it after use.

      1. Powerful televisions and electronic equipment: a risk to your equipment
