If an off the shelf kettle is popping a circuit breaker in your house (absent some other load on the circuit), there’s a reasonable chance that’s a fire waiting to happen in a faulty wiring connection somewhere.
- fomine3 4y agoMany cheap older apartment in Japan has poor 30A/100V power contract. Even the equipment is fine, 12A electric kettle may cause circuit braker down if they use other electronics.
- JshWright 4y agoYeah, if you exceed the total load, then obviously the breaker is going to trip (that's why I added the "absent other loads" qualifier)
