 2100Watt is just under 9 amps so won't trip if on by itself. (yes it is a 16amp breaker, C curve). For anything 240 V just divide the wattage by 240 = current (amps). If other things on with it add total amps. In your case need to total less than 16.

One to watch out for is the microwave. They have a far higher input than output.
