Default is it legal for a UK 13A mains plug to _not_ have a fuse? dodgycamera battery charger?

Ignoring the price and the BS - what kind of hi-fi needs a 13A fuse?


It's only 3kW. With decent 5.1 system that is only 500W RMS per
channel input. The sub may well want more so even less for the other
5 channels...


Our college disco amp only needed 200W per channel. Why would I need
3kW in my house? (though of course the consumption will be a lot more
than the output)
