Hi Shawn, It could depending on what is plugged in. For example I have my computer,modem etc all switched so when it is turned off nothing draws any power. If the appliance does not draw power when not in use it would make no difference such as a lamp. Other things would become a hassle when the power is cut, if power is cut to my cable box when turn back on it takes almost 30 minutes for all programming to be re-initialized. Things with clocks would most likely have to be reset. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Shawn Keen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, October 29, 2008 9:59 AM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] electrical power uses cut
Hi, I was talking to a friend in London one time, and he said all the power plugs over there have an on off switch. I know there system is different than ours. But I wonder if that would make any difference if you could turn plugs off if your not using them? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lenny McHugh" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, October 29, 2008 8:56 AM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] electrical power uses cut > Hi Gary, When the switch is turned on current is sent to the light > fixture. > If the bulb is missing or burned out there is no completion of the > circuit. > Only when a circuit is completed is there a use of power.
