I have a pond aerator pump that plugs into mains electricity. In normal use, it draws 4 Watts, evidently. It wasn't supplied with a mains plug so I fitted one and installed the lowest rated mains fuse I had - 2 Amps. However, the instruction manual states:
"should be fused for a rated fault current of max. 30mA by means of a fault current protection device".
Maybe I'm misinterpreting this statement but I take that to mean either a 0.03 Amp fuse or MCB?!? They don't exist, do they? Maybe they mean an RCD? An explanation would be appreciated, thanks.
