Built in Double Oven question

I will be buying a new bult in fan assisted double oven (900mm high), can i run this on a normal 32amp system? or will i need to conect it to my existing 42amp circuit?:confused:
I understand that a max of 3KW can be connected to a 32amp ring but will an oven draw more?

    It depends on which oven you buy, many single ovens now will technically work on a 13amp supply for europe but of course you should not do that here, you will need to check the specs on each oven uner consideration.

    I'd be surprised if a Fan Assisted Double oven was under 3KW. So I would say it will have to go on its own Cooker Circuit.

    Only single ovens can run off the ring circuit.

    When you look at ovens check their ratings. If they are 13A or under they cn go on a 13a plug and therefore plug into a socket.

    Otherwise it's the cooker main.
