We don't in North America. UL and CSA would just freak out!are there many countires that use fused plug tops?

Hi jarthel,
I don't like sticking a meter in series. I've seen too many blown ones as a result.

Not in the context of the discussion. You would have been in the volts function.I was right about connecting the vom in series with the hot wire

To measure the real time AC amps/volts/watts/VA/hz/power factor, get one of these. Completely safe. http://www.p3international.com/products/special/P4400/P4400-CE.html
For fusing a low power transformer, try a slow blow at the rated amps of the primary as a starting point.

Hi billdinva,

Won't work. I have my doubts on the 0.2% accuracy thing too.how to compute for fuse amperage?
Mains here is 220-240VAC 50/60Hz.
current load of the system
That's been suggested earlier, I disagree. There is already a thermal fuse for that. You want to protect against abnormally high current for the circuit. It's not that difficult to figure out.For fusing a low power transformer, try a slow blow at the rated amps of the primary as a starting point.
