Yes. (Electrical engineer here.)

The rating of the plug is determined by the circuit in the wall, ie: the size of the wires.
It's actually the best place to plug in high power use devices.

The only word of caution I would give is to check that you have a safety switch. The higher rated circuits take longer for the fuses to blow on high rated circuits. If you have an old porcelain fuse board, consider getting it replaced.
