Fuse too big on fridge

[John-SJW]

A small under counter AEG fridge. Instructions say it is fitted with a 13A fuse in the plug. Also states it must be replaced by a 13A fuse. The fridge is drawing 0.32 amps. A 13A fuse is ridiculously oversized. If having a mcb or RCBO at the CU for just the fridge, a 1.00mm cable can be run on a radial for it.

The instructions do say that a qualified or competent electrician must fit the appliance, so a get out for them. If the electrician say 3A will do then that is that I suppose. Do many ignore these types of instructions and say insert a 3A fuse in the plug? Safer.

Guys I'm rounding this thread up, it's become a bit of a war of words now more about getting one up than actually having a mature discussion.
For future threads and reference can we stick to trying to respond with more respect and tolerance on any disagreements, we don't need to see members dragging down what could be a good discussion over differing opinions.
