Discuss What cable size and breaker would I need for two extractor fans in a public toilet? 1.5mm 3 core and a 20amp rcbo? in the Electrical Wiring, Theories and Regulations area at ElectriciansForums.net

The requirement for a 3amp inline fuse in the UK is generally from the manufacturer, not a regulation.
Indeed.

So why do they require that in the UK when they don't require it in other countries?

As I said
Do they make special fans for the UK, different from the millions they make for countries where you can't get any overload protection beyond the circuit OPD?

So are they selling us different fans to the ones they sell in countries where, short of a dedicated circuit, you can't put them on a 3A fuse?
