> Where would you put the fuse, then?
In the electrical panels, of course. You'd only need fuses in the plug if you wired up your home with a braindamaged topology like a ring circuit. (Alas, ring circuits are very common in British home wiring.)

So how do you know what size to fit?
Or do you just get in about your panels and replace them every time you unplug a lamp to plug in a TIG welder?
You'd have a dedicated outlet on a dedicated circuit for the TIG welder. In North America, that dedicated outlet would have a different physical plug shape than your lamp, so as to avoid confusion. Of course, if in the UK you use exactly the same plug shape for both lamp and welder, I can see how that could be unsafe...
Yes, but in America you have a lot of electrical fires, and in the UK, we don't.
