Wire from the blender caught fire, fuses tripped

[Tyler]

The blender is a nutripro 1200 nothing extravagant but it's a good purpose made blender/juicer id like to keep or replace with another the exact same

Hi Tyler and Welcome to the Forum
Nice pic !
Question is, why did the lead fail? Did the lead get damaged at some point? Or is the blender faulty and it overheated the lead?

Melted on the hob is how I read it.
As Pete says, if you find an appliance repairer that has the tools (security screws probably present) or some brains and gumption to get over that problem the only thing to weigh up is the price of repair vs the price of asset.
All the best

Any chance it would be covered under warranty?

Where abouts on the lead is the fault? I ask as it may be possible to shorten the lead to before the fault and just fit a plug.

not so much fun though. lead might then be too short to reach the hotplate.

Or use a joint similar to the ones being discussed yesterday on the washing machine flex thread. Cut back to undamaged cable and extend with new flex.

Think your are clutching at straws with that one Tyler

As already said, surely the flex could be shortened, job done.
