If I charge my electric B from a 3 pin domestic socket, all the wiring remains steadfastly cool, except the fuse in theplug which gets uncomfortably hot, and by conduction heats up all 3 pins on plugand a few inches down the cable to the "brick". this is at four flashing lights which I have set at 13 amps. Cable barely warm if I switch back to two flashing lights.
Anyone else notice anything similar? Handbook warns of keeping a watch on hot cables but I am disconcerted by a hot fuse.
Apologies to those who can't refuel at home
