I’m a recent transplant to Belgium. I just walked across the room to check the wiring cabinet in my apartment. The building dates from the 1830s but was heavily remodeled by my landlord in the early 2000s. All my breakers are 20A. My apartment also has electric radiators for heat and electric water heaters. Maybe that’s why Belgium will have rolling blackouts this winter! :D
