Hi, please be gentle because I am a newbie here. Anyways, my problem is:
I have a smoke machine for stage use, it was bought from Germany so it has a 2 pin plug on it, I am in England so I need to use the 3 pin plug, just need to know which ampage rate fuse I would need to use on it when I change the plug. It is rated at 1000watts power, voltage is 220v/50hz, 110v/60hz, the cable that comes with the machine is 16A 250V.
Please if anyone could advise in the right direction that would be great, Many thanks

I-p/v
Which should be 1000w divided by230v which =4.34amps.
So use a 5 amp fuse.
All the best keep the smoke flowing.
