It’s not just a hair dryer. It’s almost anything with a heating element. I have learned this the hard way being unable to run any two things with heat together in the same circuit of my poorly wired house without blowing the circuit. Like a hair dryer and electric frying pan.

The heat is generated by the resistance of a large amount of electricity passing through the element.
