Frequent turning on and off devices from the outlet

Hello. I saw in you in January a user’s question that “is it possible to constantly pull out appliances from sockets when leaving home”. You answered that this is undesirable, because with constant pulling out and inserting, the contacts of devices and sockets deteriorate, and that it is better to install machines on the refrigerator, etc. My question is: how to charge phones, smartphones and tablets? After all, they generally need to be charged every other day, but it happens that every day. It turns out that you have to constantly use the outlet, "back and forth." Thank.

    Each socket is designed for a certain number of “pulls”, that is, in any case, the socket will not work forever and during operation the reliability of the socket sockets will deteriorate. Therefore, if the appliance can be turned off with a button, switch, etc., then there is no need to constantly disconnect it from the network. At the same time, there are electrical appliances that need to be disconnected from the outlet - this includes chargers. You’ll be constantly disconnecting them anyway - there’s no getting around it. You will not disconnect the chargers, extend the life of the outlet, but at the same time, the charger will reduce the service life and they will consume electricity - that is, it will be more expensive for you than replacing the outlet once every several years.
    But you can not equate the frequent disconnection of electrical appliances with a "euro" plug and a charging phone. The Euro pins of the plug are thicker than usual and if you disconnect and turn on such a plug every day, the socket will fail much faster, while when you turn on the charger with thinner pins, the socket will last a long time.
    In any case, the outlet serves to use it. You use, as you wish, the main thing is that the outlet is always in good working order. In case of contact deterioration, the socket will spark and must be repaired or replaced with a new one.

    Thank. Maybe you should buy an extension cord with a button (I don’t know what it is called) and charge phones and planets through it, including and including a button, without touching the outlet?

      The surge protector is called. As an option, you can, but already wrote that the chargers do not adversely affect the sockets of the outlet, so there is no need to worry.
