Why isn't there code/regulations for tbis. Why do you need blog advice.

It is like using too thin wiring to your oven or something. Because you based it off how you typically use the oven not is max draw plus decent margin.

Which is why you get a qualified electrician who knows or get qualified yourself.

On pretty much every other device (domestic for sure, I don't actually know abount commercial) there is.

Sure, but with all other electrical labelling the numbers are correct. Imagine if Neff said "you only need an 13A rated socket" for their oven, and then when you want to bake bread it draws more. That's very different to Neff saying "you need 45A", and deciding to install it on a 13A socket yourself because you don't need to make bread. The former is what's happening in this case.

Okay, but the oven tells you: use at least 8mm^2 wire, and then it goes up in flames because hey sometime you actually need 10mm^2...

Quote from the internet in reference to 10mm2 wire gauge:

"This metric wire size is common in industrial settings for high-power devices and main circuits where thicker conductors are needed for safety and efficiency."

That would be quite some oven.

Most household solar systems do require permitting and inspections before you can turn it on. There are some exceptions in a few states for very small systems now. Ecoflow provides equipment for these small legal unpermitted installs.

More importantly, equipment shouldn’t self destruct in a dangerous fashion when pushed over the limit.
