Question

A student wants to use all of the appliances at the same time so plugs them in to a multiway socket.

The socket has a maximum safe current of 30A and the mains electricity is 230V.
a. Is it safe to use all five appliances at once?
Explain your answer showing your use of the equation

Answer 1

The answer would be no

Step-by-step explanation:

because the voltages are so high, we can assume that 5 appliances divided up between the voltages would not be safe to use together and would ultimately cause the circuits to overload
