      But reminder gas appliances are generously only ~50% efficient, so this performance is matched with a 10-15kW induction wok, which is a hefty electrical load, but doable.

        Induction isn’t 100% efficient either.

        In any case, 15kw > 60 amps on a 240V circuit. That means you need a 75-80 amp breaker. It’s pretty rare to find that in a residential setting. Even hefty car chargers use a 60 amp breaker.
