This bulb was my plan

I've been sticking 1A in any lamps recently
Last time I looked they were a bit unusual. If Screwfix don't list them do they really exist?

3A? What 700W bulb are they going to have?
I've been sticking 1A in any lamps recently. Even a hefty low energy bulb is only 20W which will be under 0.1A
3A and 13A are the only recognised fuses for 13A plugs. 🤷🏻♂️
1A and 5A do exist but aren't, 'technically' compliant.

The fuse is there to protect the cable really, and even 0.5mm flex will carry 3A. Not sure of the benefit of using a 1A fuse.
