Which is the best fuse to use (3A, 5A or 13A) with a 1.15kW electric fire at a potential difference of 240v

well you could TRY a 5A. But my guess is that its pushing the limits.

it's not, any more than a 13A load is pushing it with a 13A fuse. It's precisely what they're designed for.

13A. Remember the fuse is to protect the wiring that is downstream of
it only.

that garbage is much trotted out.
