Wiring an electric cooker?
Comments
-
most ovens can work of just the normal ring main. 13amp.
however a hob or freestanding cooker needs a dedicated 30/45 amp supply.
do you have a proper cooker switch box or not?
No
17th edition says any load over 2.7?* KW should be wired on its own circuit ok if its existing but a new oven would need to be separate.
* would have to check the ecact size but basically wiring single ovens onto ring mains is no longer acceptable.0
