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
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.
I assume the flex is sized for a typical lighting circuit fuse or breaker of 5 or 6A anyway.
