Mains cable missing from box

So a "kettle lead" which is a actually a 13a UK mains plug with a C13 IEC power connector should only ever have a fuse with a max rating of 10a in when on a 220v +- 10% supply

Why you might ask?

Because the C13 IEC connector is only rated for 10a

Occasionally a few higher rated PC PSUs will have a C19 IEC, which is rated for 16a

Have you switched the computers on yet?

Did you find a 10a/5a fuse? If you posted your city location someone might have been extremely nice n fetched you two.
