Current rating = 5 A
2kW = 2000 W
Voltage = 20 V
P = VI
2000 = 20 * I
2000/20 = I
100 A = I
Current rating of the circuit is 5 A , when 100 A current will flow through it then the protection on the wiring will melt due to excess heat , neutral and live wire will come in contact and short-circuit will take place leading to fire.
