Hi all,

I intend to plug in a high power kitchen applicance in Japan.

Does anybody know about the maximum amperage/wattage at a standard Japanese residence wall outlet?
What is the usual fusage - e.g. 20 amps?

Many thanks and regards.
 
How big is your place?

I'd estimate 20 amps for an apartment and 60 amps for an average-sized house.

And it should be written on or near the breaker switch.
 
My apartment has a 40A main circuit with 8 sub-circuits max. 20A. Other residences could be less though.
Typical voltage is 100V RMS.
 
Here in Aichi Prefecture , in my little 2DK apartment, I have a 30A breaker with 50/60Hz, 110/220V. I have no idea what any of that means, however....:(
 
I was just surprised to hear 40A. I've got a 20A in my 2DK.
I guess it's all over the place and depends on the building you live in.
