Where I live, houses/any building really have separate circuits for lights, a separate circuit for sockets, and a separate line for things like ovens and hot water.
Depending on the number of lights or outlets, there may also be zones.

It’s illegal to have wall outlets and lighting on the same circuit, and realistically flat out dumb.

I believe thermal paste is why Xbone X is dying more so than being used with another surge protector lol. But clearly shown in this video the person has shown that even when plugged in it’s own wall outlet the console failed.

In reply to Gamez Rule. I know,I'm just explaining why there's a warning about using multiple surge protectors.

The video above I posted is showing Xbone X console dying even when plugged into it’s own wall outlet?

I believe that it’s the thermal paste causing the Xbone X deaths after seeing the tear downs of the consoles due to being dry more than it being plugged into another surge protector.

Because it has it’s own surge protector,there’s no need to use one. Now that might limit your plug space but that’s the only downfall. It’s simple, surge protectors are breaks in the line of power to the outlet and your device.The more breaks in the line the less power that device gets to function. That is what they are warning about. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJW3Jpqjx5s

You seen this “Xbox One X’s Are Faulty! Is This The Problem?”

Thermal paste being questioned again.

Even when Xbone X has been plugged into their own outlet the consoles have been dying. ( See video )

And not being funny but why would MS even make a console that can’t be used with another surge protector. That is beyond me.
