Contact the electrician on site and ask them to swap the breaker to a higher amperage one. It's beneficial to distribute major equipment across different breakers instead of all under one. For example, set up separate circuits for the kitchen (microwave), office (PC), and ceiling lights (allowing AC connection). This prevents breakers from tripping when multiple high-power devices run simultaneously.

When the bulb is labeled 60W, or the microwave specifies 1000W, this typically indicates the standard power rating for household appliances.

Light bulb or microwave do not convert AC to DC for other devices. They are considered end devices, not intermediate ones like a power supply.

lmao indeed a microwave changes AC into high voltage DC for the magnetron. All power sources in nearly any market/industry/application offer numbers for their output, which is why the term "supply" is used instead of "receive," and they promote or advertise that output, with a few exceptions.

The US has a special approach to microwave ovens. They mainly display the output, which matches their marketing, but the actual power they use is much higher. I've noticed labels that list power in VA and output in Watts. In other countries, they usually show input and output power in Watts.
