It would, of course, be silly to restrict power on a kettle which is near

Why legislate to limit the maximum, why not just mandate an A-F rating
and let people *choose* what they want?

After all the rating system is what they did for fridges/freezers and
they're probably the top household appliances for energy use (in
non-electric heated houses).
