The previous owner of our 'van fitted and successfully utilised an Argos Value range Model MM717CFA microwave into one of the top lockers. ( Power consumption rated at 1150W or approx 5A with a microwave output of 700W.)

Obviously there is adequate ventilaton space all round. He drilled two holes into which the front feet fitted in order to locate it.  Nevertheless, it was removed and stowed on the floor in transit, just in case it shook out which would have been a real problem.  The most awkard bit was neatly fitting the 240v socket in the top corner of the locker to power it.

However, we took it out an refitted the door as we felt that there is nothing we really can't do without that can't be done on the hob.

1200 watts equates to about 5 amps so this in itself will not cause an ehu to trip
