Ah … you mean the fuse in the 13A plug, not the circuit breakers. That is normal!
And really winds me up! There is something called a "hot lead" because the ordinary 13A leads are a lie, and can't handle the current. But I'm probably lecturing you again as I'm sure you know of them.
(EDIT: Hang on, the conversation has switched to 13A from … err … 15A wasn't it? Definitely time for me to get out now)

I know alot less than most about this it seems, but would the best solution be to install the type of socket that the 16A plug it came with needs?
FFS just chuck some cold water on it when it gets hot, sorted.
+1 to this.
Have done something very similar in similar circumstances to yourself.
I use one rated at 4kW to control my boiler. Helps control boil over and protect the fused spur the radial is fed from
