If that is the case, we should treat electric kettle as aircond huh. Pull a separate line for it.

if all pull separate line , then i need a lot of MCB....

Usually it won't really trip if using 13A fuse.
It will heat up the wire.
*
If oven is operate say at 2000watt, and kettle boiling at 2000 watt, 17 Amps. I hope the MCB will trip, else wires sure problem in long run.

Isn't it the outlook of 15 amp power socket is different with the 13amp one?
*
They can install the 15amps socket for oven, but the underlining cables are shares with other socket. This is called looping/tapping.

I have always liked Breville brand and have used the kettle and toaster before when I lived in Perth as a student. Belongs to my landlord. Was thinking of getting one each for my new apartment. Anyone have experience with Breville before?

1. Prefer stainless steel with no plastic parts inside
2. Bigger lid opening for easy cleaning
3. Esthetics

Bought a Philips model

Nope, is just having more air bags at the same cost. Since My contractor quote me looping or independent is only RM 10 difference. Why not?

And furthermore, it can easily convert to 3Phases and easier to split the load.

It won't trip also, as both of the said appliance won't direct pull full current when started. Only appliance that using motor or compressor will trip when they kick starting.
That's the danger when we are using heating appliance over others.

Thank you for your concern.

The water is boiled one time and if making tea as well, just keep warm only.

Be careful of water being boil many times, heard that is not good for our body.

These are some appliances if not manage properly can easily increase house monthly utility bill. Imaging leaving it stay warm for 24x7 how much it take to keep in warm when the material it use are good thermal transfer (metal, stainless steel).

After I stop using the thermal pot, my tnb bill drop at lease 40+ units TNB, that only because I use termal pot for < 10 hours.

Right. Looks like a similar price range for the Breville that I am considering - not decided yet though.
