People should understand power requirements of appliances and also
recognize that power spikes are needed to start electric motors and too
much load can trip breakers.

That reminds me of some safety instructions I heard once that said
prevent overloads by never plugging more than 2 things into a
receptacle, as if it didn't matter whether they were 2 little LED
nightlights or 2 1500W heaters.
