I think it's mostly my personality, but I'd say no. It sounds like
things are pretty hectic, and the last thing that's needed is a blown
circuit breaker, or worse yet, a blown fuse with no replacement on hand
and all the stores closed. Even if the people cooking, coordinate
everything, somebody's going to come along and want toast or coffee,
plug the appliance in that was carefully unplugged for that very reason,
and boom, no juice.
