electricals
Powered household items
Electricals is a British term for electrical goods or appliances, especially as a retail category: The electricals section stocks kettles, toasters, and televisions.
The word treats electrical equipment as a collective noun, much like "electronics" but broader in scope, covering household appliances alongside electronic devices.
