Plug in socket thermostats

In socket

— devices plugged directly into a socket. The body of such a thermostat usually has its own socket, and the plug of the heater or other climatic device is included in it. Temperature control is carried out because the thermostat, as necessary, turns on and off the power supplied to the device.

The main advantage of this type of installation can be called simplicity — no special work is required for installation. At the same time, the socket may not be the best place to mount the thermostat (both in terms of accessibility and temperature control).
