Depend your socket load. IF its in dependent get the higher power like 2400 watt or higher, boiling sure faster. If you socket are shared with fridge or other appliances get lower load.

For me, I use gas to boil, is cheaper smile.gif

Means we shouldn't share a power socket when we use it for kettle?

If all using the same copper wire to the fuse (same MCB), that mean is looping. Same row of powerpoint usually are loop. Not many will have direct. Some but I seldom see now uses Ring circuit.

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

No need lah, kettle only run 10-15mins a day. If using oven don't use kettle at the same line. Else my risk tripping, worse wires burned.

Oven usually have a separate 15amp power socket, right?

Isn't it the outlook of 15 amp power socket is different with the 13amp one?
