Discuss Installing induction hob+electric oven...separate circuits or same? in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Yes agree, but with most ovens for example, you cannot have the main oven selected with the side, top or bottom element. And vise versa. So a suitable cable would be supplied for the maximum possible culmination of load. Same cannot be said of electric hobs, but I haven't seen any hobs with a manufacturers cable?
 
Well there you go. Out of curiosity did it ask for derating ocpd?

That's hob not oven.
I came across some from aeg and electrolux that ask for min 16 and max 20amp fuse.
It may be to stop people wire them in to the kitchen rings through 20amp isolator.

I went once to check one. Turn out it was 3.6kw oven and was connected with 13 amp plug to the socket. It last almost a 1 year before fuse went and burn socket slightly. Customer got new oven and this one looks really nice in my kitchen now...
