    What do these ratings mean

    I didn't see the 13A. 10A for 230v is cutting it fine and 10A for 240v is too low.

    What do these ratings mean

    In simplistic terms the resistance is constant but power (kw) will change proportionately with the applied voltage. So for 230v the power is 2.3kw and for 240v it is 2.5kw. The 10A fuse satisfies 230v and the 16A fuse satisfies 240v, I suspect 13A fuses which would satisfy both is not included...

    3A fuse instead of 13A?

    The 3A fuse is there to protect the current lighting. For additional power you connect from the non protected 3A fuse side.

    Emergancy work flow

    I was going to suggest the brewery chains but you are likely to need nationwide coverage and the chances of a small enterprise getting a contract is all but zero. Commercial refrigeration is another as down time can be very costly.

    EICR - Help on my Request for Electrical Safety Alternatives and Quotes

    As I said it is questionable and my query was perfectly correct. For you to suggest a 2.5 on a 25A protective device is fine without knowing the installation method is, well, questionable. Not sure how the 32A protective device being type B is relevant.
