Edit 2 - kindly note that the table I posted in the link provided by hob above was based on the European supply of 230V and not the 240V as found in the UK so this should be taken into consideration. In effect, though, the actual amperage used will be slightly lower in the UK as that which is shown in the table i.e. 3000Watts divided by 230Volts = 13.04Amps (in Europe) but only 3000Watts divided by 240Volts = 12.5Amps in the UK.
The UK has been on a nominal 230v for single phase since 1995.

In the interests of cross-European harmonisation, naturally.

It's only 230v nominal anyway, because there is an accepted supply range of 230 plus or minus a single-figure percentage.

It's not an exact thing.

And besides, once we've left Europe and cross-European harmonisation has become a distant memory, we're going to change our mains voltage to a figure of our own choosing.

319.6v is the favoured option at the moment.

This sort of madness might just come true !!!!!!

It'll have to be a downward figure as 6% of our electricity currently comes from France or the Netherlands . "Currently" See what I did there?
