6. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: Can the C14 to UK cable be used in Europe?
No! Europe uses Type F (Schuko) plugs, and you must use a C14 to EU cable or conversion plug.
Q2: Can I change the fuse of the UK plug myself?
Yes! Use a screwdriver to open the back cover of the plug and replace the BS 1362 standard fuse according to the specifications (such as 3A→5A).
Q3: C14 supports 16A, but the UK plug is up to 13A. Will there be any problems?
As long as the device power is ≤ 13A (about 3000W), it is safe. If higher current is required, you need to use an industrial plug (such as IEC 309 16A).
