Which of the following is the correct way to use an extension cord?

In the exam (Chinese)

以下哪一個是正確使用延長線的方式?

  1. aPlug appliances into every socket on the extension cord.將延長線上所有插座插滿電器。
  2. bPlug high-power appliances such as heaters and hair dryers into the extension cord.將電暖器、吹風機等高功率電器插在延長線上。
  3. cUnplug an appliance as soon as you finish using it.電器使用完,隨手拔掉插頭。Correct answer
  4. dPlug an extension cord into another extension cord.將延長線插在另一個延長線上。

Why?

Unplugging appliances as soon as you finish saves electricity and also lowers the risk of a fire caused by an overheated extension cord. Do not fill an extension cord with high-power appliances, and do not chain extension cords together.
