Just how much current can a 13 amp fuse potentially (no pun intended) pass?

I've seen loads plugged into fused multi-ways in excess of 3120 watts and wondered if anyone had ever tested this.

New here so sorry if this has been asked to death!:waving:
 
3000 watts is dead on the boarder for 13A

As regard to how long will a 13A hold depends on the current running though it, time in seconds can be worked out using the tables in the back of the BRB.
 
it is roughly 1.45 x rating for 1 hour till a fuse blows.
