Comment on I bought a schuko plug adapter. They didn't read specs or even tried it: the diameter of the hole is too small!

Oh god no. It’s not about feeding in 16A, it’s about consuming 16A thereby overloading the wiring. If everything else is OK, trying to consume 16A should trip the fuse, still - if that doesn’t work, you’ll get a certain (normally very small) fire risk.
