There are plenty of hobs designed to connect up with a 13A plug. They're probably not as fast, but they're certainly out there.

What four ring hobs do tesco’s sell that are 13 amp then please post one that is ? Each ring /hotplate is normally around 1kw for small 2kw large (double element types higher Kw ) four ring hobs have two large two small do the maths

Ive found people tend to thank post that save them money agree with there reasoning regardless of it being correct or not just human nature :rotfl:

I have no idea what was being sold by Tesco back when it was purchased, nor do I know the model.

Plenty of electric hobs come with a 13a plug fitted.

You have no idea what the electrician meant, especially when it's been passed through someone else.

You have no idea what the hob is designed to be wired up to.

What's the point in stating conjecture as fact?

As you state "Plenty of electric hobs come with a 13a plug fitted." name one to make the statement you will be able to back it up post or stop talking rubbish, Enjoy your afternoon looking online for something that doesn't exist :rotfl:

You don’t need to know what electrician means you need to understand basic domestic electricity e.g. ring main, lighting etc fuse rating, cable sizes etc limitations

I'm sure you're big enough to use Google search; stop being a forum warrior.

Yes but not so stupid to look for something that doesn't exist. Prefer to spend afternoon riding my unicorn around the enchanted forest
You don’t need to know what electrician means you need to understand basic domestic/wiring electricity e.g. ring main, lighting etc fuse rating, cable sizes etc and standard loading

Fuse blowing means there is either 1/ a fault 2/ Its is drawing to much current 13 amp plug on an item such as hob:rotfl: I go with no 2

check the loading not the b/s
- Front right: 1.8kW
- Front left: 2.8 kW
- Back right: 1.8 kW
- Back left: 1.2 kW
Number of rings able to use full power is limited to "one" or as they call it power management

Well, yes - it's a 13A plug; it's a hob designed with that in mind - it spreads the available load out amongst the rings..

Sorry, I'm just not really sure what your point is? Nobody said you could draw 32A through a 13A socket. I think you might be tilting at windmills here.

If I thought you’d understand or it would be beneficial to OP I’d give you a detailed explanation but as you clearly don’t there’s no point... All the clues are in OP :rotfl:

Can't you just accept there are numerous four ring Hobbs being sold that are fitted with a 13amp plug?

As he said, try google.
