[QUOTE="Phoenix, post: 526875, member: 8133"] All 13A plugtops are fused. 13A sockets are commonly installed on ring cirucits fused at 32A although you will often find 16 or 20A radial circuits in use as well (32A radials in 4mm sometimes as well). Building 'christmas trees' of unfused adapters is discouraged. 13A MCBs are sometimes available, but very rarely used and you will not need them I'd advise working alongside someone who is familiar with installation practices over here.
