You better get a qualified electrician - make sure he is registered with TNB before you engage. Wire-cable thickness is very important ... if the load more than wire can handle then it will overload which leads to wire becomes heated up which leads to electrical fire.

Each wall power socket should not be more than 13A which means your fuse should be 15A. And depending on how your electrician wired up your sockets previously ... some electricians do short cut ... they put multiple wall socket on one wire example one room you ask 3 sockets ... that may be shared with 1 wire 1 MCB ... thus it is no better than an extension bar ... maximum load combined is only 13A.

Kitchen appliances such fridge, washing machines, microwave, electric stove, etc. usually will require its own dedicated socket and MCB ... that would be around 20A each. This especially true if you use very old appliances. New modern appliances nowadays use a lot smaller amps - so a standard 13A can support.

You better check your appliance power draw requirements and count ... to be safe make sure total amp to 1 wall socket is no more than 13A. If you are overloading ... you have inefficient electric wiring which leads to high power loss which leads to a higher power bill.

So when it comes to electric wiring ... don't play-play ... be penny wise pound foolish.

Hope that helps.

Ewwww ... really bad design .. your power sockets are no better than a RM30 extension bar since they all share the same fuse. One blow all blow ... and you have a high chance of overloading unless you are consciously remembering how many devices you are putting on that circuit.
