What happens if you overload a smart plug?
Are smart plugs a fire risk? – As with any other plug, smart plugs are more likely to be a risk if they’re used improperly. If you overload a socket by plugging in too many appliances, or if you plug in an appliance that exceeds the plug’s maximum wattage, you risk short-circuits and electric discharges, which can cause fires in the worst case scenario.
Do smart plugs break?
5. Check the Wattage Limit – All smart plugs come with a wattage limit that shouldn’t be exceeded. If you have lights or other small appliances connected to your smart plug, you should be fine. However, if you have more than one heavyweight appliance plugged in, you might be overloading your smart plug.
Again, some smart plugs display warnings when they’re overloaded, but not all. The best way to fix this is to check the maximum wattage on your smart plug and add up the wattages of your devices. An overloaded smart plug that turns on and off should be the least of your concerns. Drawing too much power from your smart plug can cause it to break.
In extreme cases, it may be a fire hazard.
