I was actually repairing some Thorn 2KW MBILs last night! Cartridge fuses will naturally cope with the inrush of almost all circuits. Where I was working have groups of 8 2KW lamps switched on at a time, these are fed from standard Merlin MCBs, though unhelpfully I can't remember the type or rating...
Were they single or three phase circuits?
Is that 8 lamps on one MCB?
Each individual lamp on my site has an MCB, though they are all random sizes and types ranging from B16 to D20.
Each bank of 9 is on one circuit which is protected at 63A by an MCCB currently.
