Default German Kitchen Appliance to UK - 3200w 16a

On 11 Jul 2006 05:17:35 -0700, had this to
say:

Hello Everyone,

I am about to purchase one of these:

http://www.jaksch-kuechentechnik.de/mobil.htm

Which both come with a standard german plug fitting. The smaller model
(A2000) is 10-16amp, 2200w, so would appear to be fine to replace with
a 13amp plug and connect to any socket in my house.

The larger model (A4000) says 16amp 3200w, so this sounds like too much
for standard UK wiring.

For the larger model, you'd do best to install a separate radial 20A
circuit from the CU with a socket to match the appliance.
