Question

When we connect multiple electrical appliances to a circuit with fixed current rating using the same socket:

• A. Total resistance of circuit increases
• B. Current taken from the source decreases
• C. Current exceeds the permitted value
• D. Every appliance starts drawing more than required current

Hint:

Avoid overloading sockets; excess current can exceed fuse limits and become a fire hazard.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Using too many appliances from a single socket increases the total current beyond safe levels. This may cause overheating, damage, or even short circuits.
