Hi, I'm looking to replace my electric single fan oven. It is plugged into a double socket, the other socket having the gas hob plugged into it, and this double socket is wired to a 13a switched fused spur. Looking at the ovens in my price range I can see some that include a plug and can be connected to a socket whilst others indicate they must be hardwired to a 13 Amp fuse.
As my double socket is hardwired to the 13a switched fused spur does this mean I can use one of the ovens that must be hardwired by just connecting a cable plus plug and plugging it into the socket or would I need to get an electrician in to hardwire it directly to a fused spur? If I can connect a cable and plug in this scenario is there a minimum thickness of T&E cable that I should be using? Let me know if you need any further info. Thanks.
