power for an extended period. A dead circuit is just a little bit

GFCI outlets use a little power. So if you have outside GFCI outlets
which you are not going to use all winter, turn them off!

And window air conditioners which have a remote control or electronic
display always use electricity. Unplug it for the winter.

And don't overlook unplugging clocks when not in use.
