Dec 5, 2021 at 19:36 comment added TimWescott I'm going to answer it anyway, but this is actually a better question for diy.stackexchange.com, because it has to do with the intersection between home wiring practices, engineering, human stupidity, and the regulations they engender.
Dec 5, 2021 at 19:20 comment added DKNguyen In reality, wire heating is dependent upon many factors that are often too variable, unknown, or complicated to calculate in practice.
Dec 5, 2021 at 19:19 comment added Hearth Isn't the 80% rule just a regulatory thing? I know in the US you're not allowed to sell appliances that draw more than 1500 watts continuously if they're meant to be plugged into a normal outlet (this is why every space heater ever is 1500 watts). Outside of regulatory things, the "rule" is only a rule of thumb.
