The 16 A socket or branch-circuit fuse does not determine the minimum conductor size of the appliance’s captive cord. The cord is normally sized for the appliance’s rated current and must be protected against overheating under normal and abnormal operating conditions.
For appliances covered by the IEC 60335 family, the usual baseline for a detachable or non-detachable supply cord is:
0.75 mm² copper minimum for appliances rated up to 6 A
1.0 mm² above 6 A up to 10 A
1.5 mm² above 10 A up to 16 A
Thus, for an ordinary low-power Class I or Class II mains appliance, 0.75 mm² is generally the safe standard answer, even if the appliance draws only a few hundred milliamps.
A smaller conductor, commonly 0.5 mm², may be allowed in specific cases—for example, certain very-light-duty cords, Class III appliances, internal wiring, or products evaluated under a particular product standard. It is not automatically permitted merely because the load current is low. The complete cord must be an approved flexible cord type, with suitable insulation, mechanical strength, temperature rating, strain relief, and—if applicable—protective earth.
The socket’s 16 A protection is intended to protect the building wiring and receptacle circuit; it cannot generally protect a very small appliance cord from overload. If a fault or component failure could cause the cord to carry more than its rated current, the appliance may need an additional fuse or current-limiting device.
So, absent a product-specific exception:
Use at least 0.75 mm² for a captive 115/230 V appliance supply cord.
The applicable national or product standard can change the result—for example, IEC/EN appliance standards versus UL/CSA requirements in North America.
