Will There Be A Problem If I Plug A Fridge And A Small Toaster Oven Into The Same Outlet?


The voltage where I live is 220 and I’ll have to use a power bar in order to get them both plugged into the same outlet.
I did some reading and it seems that using multiple heating appliances in the same outlet can be a bad idea but I can’t figure out if a fridge is considered a heating appliance. I don’t have any idea what kind of amps these two appliances use, but it’s a basic fridge/freezer (i’d say a little on the small side, but closer to medium than actually being called small) and a small toaster oven. The kind that you can make cookies and chicken strips in but it’s too small for a turkey or roast.
I should also add that I rarely use the toaster oven and more often than not it wouldn’t even be plugged in. I use it maybe once or twice in a week for about an hour each time. If it’s a problem I could possibly use an extension cord to another outlet but I’d rather not have to worry about that hour if I go into the kitchen and forget.
