What is a "smart plug"?

A smart plug is an electrical outlet adapter that allows you to control the power supply to devices remotely using a smartphone, tablet, or voice commands. It plugs into a regular wall socket, and you can plug appliances or electronics into it. Through an app or voice assistant, you can turn the device on or off, set schedules, or monitor energy usage. Smart plugs are commonly used to control lights, fans, or coffee makers, making them convenient for managing appliances and improving energy efficiency without needing to be physically present.
