.75mm flex cables.IEC. 13 amp fuse.

[entech]

When carrying out the visual , there are a lot of these cables fitted with 13 amp 1652 fuses. Is the reason for this due to start up currents of appliances??.

.75 is good for around 6 amps i believe so 13 amp will not protect cable from overload. I guess the appliance would have some kind of internal fuse to protect cable in such instance.

Hope this is right as theres a lot of fails otherwise....

The appliances you mention can't be overloaded. There is another thread about this from only a week or so ago.
