Does anyone know what the wattage of the 24v socket is capable in a 69 plate FH? It says 10amp, not sure if my Waeco kettle will blow it or not.

I’ve been using it for years in the Hella socket of Scanias, just wondered whether to bother buying a new plug.

Cheers

Voltage x Current = Power in Watts.

24V x 10A = 240W.

That’s a bugger then as its a 380w kettle. Might have to dust off my spare Dunlop one which is pretty useless.

Thanks
