A method for controlling a power strip includes: acquiring a present temperature parameter of an ambient environment; determining a presently-allowed maximum power of the power strip based on the present temperature parameter; acquiring a total power of electronic devices presently powered by the power strip; and controlling the power strip to cut off power supply to at least one of the electronic devices when the total power is greater than the presently-allowed maximum power. In the technical solution, the presently-allowed maximum power of the power strip can be adjusted automatically based on the present temperature parameter of the ambient environment of the power strip, which improves flexibility of adjusting the maximum power.
