Um... yeah... 11kW, not 24kW. I'm in the U.S.
Fortunately I have a gas stove and gas heat and gas hot water, but the
oven is electric, and so is the dryer.
The quonset hut presently has a 30A breaker at the disconnect at the
pole. I can run a couple of items at once (say an 11/750 and disk),
but I'd rather not be out there replacing cartridge fuses on a regular
basis.

That and I don't have adequate electric
service to the place without
upgrading the pole. I've got 100A for the house and quonset hut
*combined*.
24kW should be enough for anyone ;-)
Of course, if you're in one of these funny 110V countries, that's only
11kW in which case my electric shower will eat most of that.
