Most would say the only fixed appliance you'll commonly get in a
kitchen is a large cooker that can't run off a 13 amp plug.

Most people are not qualified to know different

If you don't know the relationship between volts, amps, watts and ohms
and can't read a rating plate on an appliance then you shouldn't be
playing around with the electrical installation at all.

On the other hand if you do understand the underlying science and know
a few basic principles you'll probably do a safe job even if it doesn't
comply with the last detail of the 16th edition.

Some cookers can run off 13amps e.g. a single built-in oven or a small
electric hob or a dual-fuel cooker.
