• carbon on contacts due to arc burn can also act as a resistance and create fire

        Probably per room but most devices aren’t going to draw a ton of power. If you have an antique microwave collection, that might be a problem though.

          Yes, these days you might have like 20 devices plugged in, but they’re all DC and most only draw about 10W each. Also, they’re not all drawing power at the same time.
