Can anyone advise on how to find out the correct detachable UK plug cable (amperage, wire gauge etc) for electrical items where you don't have the original cable for comparison and the manufacturer of the item doesn't publish the specs for the original cable?
I had previously thought these cables were called 'kettle leads', but I gather they're actually C15 cables (I'm also interested in the clover leaf style). I don't want to buy cables that are not beefy enough, but at the same time, it seems it wouldn't be good to get one with a fuse that's much too large either.
My first priority is to make sure I comply with any UK regulations in getting the right cable.
Any advice appreciated.
