12kw cooker and hob cooker switch question

[danielc4514]

Hi All
im running a 10mm to the kitchen tomorow for a cooker and hob both run on a total of 12kw at maximum capacity. My question is what is the best way to connect these as im pretty sure it will be near impossible to fit 2 10mm cables in the load terminal.

Thanks all

What does your supervising electrician think of the best connection method or your cable calculations ?

run 2 cables chances are you have a 9kw hob and a 3 kw oven so you would require 2 circuits whats the seperate loading as in guessing

A dual outlet appliance plate perhaps?

I do not have a supervising electrician in this instance as i have now completed my level 2 and 17th edition. I have spoke to nic and they have also verified i am allowed to work on my own innitiative as long as i can show them i am comptetent in testing and inspection. I have done my sizing and also spoke to the electrician about it and he said use a 10mm. I have decided to ask for some advice on the best route for the switching and loading set out on here as i prefer not to keep hassling my old employer on these subjects.
Id prefer to run the 1 10mm to the appliances as its a favour for my mum and she doesnt have much money.

thanks
