Hi all,
I will write in English, since my norwegian is not good enough :)
I have a little question about the electric installation in my house. It was done in 1994, I have fuses of 10A with 1.5mm cables...and I was wondering if it's save to connect 600w heaters in these electric plugs? or should it be 16A and 2.5 mm?
It's the first time in my life that I see fuses of 10A in a house, so I'm a little bit afraid hehe
Tusen takk!

Normally 2300w is fully safe.
In a 110V system you must use more copper to conway more amps for the same wattage.
My worry was more about the cable section, than the power since it's forbidden to connect these kind of devices to a cable of 1.5mm, in my country. So, I was not sure about that...
Thanks for your help! ;)
