UK warns against using kettles on extension leads due to fire risk from overheating.
UK households have been warned not to plug kettles into extension leads due to fire risks, as kettles draw around 9 amps—nearly the limit of standard 13-amp leads—causing overheating, especially during power surges.
Experts stress that even brief use can be hazardous, and high-wattage devices like heaters, air fryers, and microwaves should also be plugged directly into wall sockets to prevent electrical overloads and fires.
