Hi All,
In the Uk we accept that for protection of cables we use protective devices. We also have fused plugs, which for instance might be 3 amps on a low current using device such as a mains radio. The 3 amp fuse is going to be safer and offer a level of secuity to the radio, and maybe a simple fault on it could be rectified instead of the whole thing going up in flames if there was no fused plug.
WHY is it that in Europe they do not have fused plugs and rely on the mcbs ?
I would welcome others comments.
Thanks
