Appliances

Hi all, we are new to motorhoming. Doing our first trip this weekend and staying on a site. I have bought a 250-1000w travel kettle and a 700 watt toaster. Does it matter if they both have 13amp fuses in the plugs? TIA for any advice.

The fuse is there to protect the cable so if that's what the manufacturer fitter they will be OK.

Welcome..
Think you will find thats pretty standard on those appliances and fitted by the manufacturer.

If its because you are looking at the hook up being 16amps dont panic...
As a very very rough equation a 1000w appliance is about 4.5amps.. So you can easily run both of those items together.
The main reason of buying low wattage appliances is that on some sites, mainly abroad, you could have a supply as little as 6 amps. Then you would need to use one appliance at a time..
