    As a landlord I would be peed off if my tenant did this.

    As a landlord, I'd be more than peed off about this and would be giving them notice to quit as soon as I could. The risk of faulty wiring is just too much.

    What sort of tenant brings their own oven with them? Sounds like something out of a Fr Ted episode.

    Social housing never comes with a cooker. Tenants always provide their own cookers. Maybe the OP has come from a property where a cooker was not provided.

    Private rental properties do tend to come with a cooker more often than not but it's not universal.

    The tenant isn't altering the wiring they are just plugging in the cooker and that involves taking the face plate off and screwing three cables in a connection box. It's very easy and extremely difficult to get wrong.

    :p Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S) :p Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money. :p
