A kettle typically has a 13 amp fuse to protect against electrical faults and prevent overheating. The 13 amp rating is suitable for the high power consumption of kettles, which can draw significant current when heating water. This fuse ensures that if there is a fault, such as a short circuit, it will blow and cut off the power, reducing the risk of fire or damage to the appliance. Additionally, using a 13 amp fuse aligns with standard electrical safety regulations in many regions.
