Detailed Solution

The effects of overload can be avoided by:
Avoid connecting too many electrical appliances to one power plate or power point.
The practice of using a switch that accepts a higher voltage magnitude to connect to the desired appliances.
So both 1 and 2 are correct.

As a result of this overloading of the electrical circuit, short circuits and possible fire hazards had a significant impact.
