UK Heatwave - need extra sockets?

During the recent heatwave many households have started to use more plug in appliances such as fans and portable cooling devices / air conditioning units. As a local electrician in Milton Keynes, we have seen an increase in requests for extra sockets to help improve convenience and reduce reliance on extension leads.

Hot weather often means more devices are running at once, including:

  • Fans in bedrooms and living areas

  • Portable cooling units / air conditioning units

  • Outdoor lighting and garden equipment

  • Charging devices in different rooms or outdoor spaces

When sockets are limited, extension leads are often used as a temporary solution.

A Safer and More Practical Option

While extension leads are useful short term, they’re not always ideal for long periods or multiple appliances.

Installing additional sockets provides:

  • A safer and permanent power solution

  • Better access to electricity where you actually need it

  • Less clutter from trailing cables

  • Improved convenience during warmer months
