Ok.. but if it doesn't have a plug?
Lets say it doesn't have a plug, the kitchen is on its own ring and its less than or equal to 13A?
much like most kettles and heaters run at just under 13A ???

Just thought I'd finish the thread. The original oven was plugged in, the new oven stated that it could have a plug fitted fused to 13A so thats what I did. The hob was confusing! It had 2.5mm flex on it and stated that it needed to be fused down to 23A (it was 5000W). The 45A cooker switch fed both oven and hob and was run with 6mm cable protected by 32A MCB.
I have removed the flex on the hob and connected the 6mm (that was previously feeding the last hob)directly into the new hob as there were 32A terminals in a box fitted into the underneath of the hob.
I didn't like taking off the flex as that is what it came with but I have to admit that I didn't know how to fuse down to 23A - I cant change the MCB as it feeds both oven/hob and needs to be 32A. Is there a FCU that is greater than 13A??
Nearly all of them are. You don't need a new circuit.The 45A cooker switch fed both oven and hob and was run with 6mm cable protected by 32A MCB.
4mm would do. Actually 2.5mm would probably do but that would require knowledge and test equipment.I have removed the flex on the hob and connected the 6mm (that was previously feeding the last hob)directly into the new hob as there were 32A terminals in a box fitted into the underneath of the hob.
Does it?I didn't like taking off the flex as that is what it came with but I have to admit that I didn't know how to fuse down to 23A - I cant change the MCB as it feeds both oven/hob and needs to be 32A.
No. Do you think you should be doing this work?Is there a FCU that is greater than 13A??
