There can be a secret heater.
No, there could not be. The wire going into the reactor is not heavy
enough to support the anomalous power that was produced. It would
have burned up.
No, it would not burn up. This cable lies free on the floor and in
ambient air.
Lets say it has a temperature 5 degrees above ambient under full load.
It is probably designed this way that it works safely under worst case
conditions and 70° ambient temperatue for infinite time.
If it conducts 2 times the maximum rating current then it has 20° over
ambient after some hours but less after a shorter time. Nobody would
notice this under this circumstances and it will still be perfectly safe.
WRONG!
Have you ever seen what happens to a certified extension cord which is
used for twice or more the current for a longer period?
Well it becomes hot, and the neoprene around it will finally melt and
what happens, is that the Live and Neutral wire will create a
short-circuit with sparks and you think no-one will notice this?
