connection of electric cooker and hob?

Question

hi there i posted this question earlier.do not know how to amend it. i have got a new cooker and hob. i have a cooker cable which will be heavy enough to serve the hob and cooker but i noticed that the cooker says that it must have a 13 amp fuse. do i need to have a seperate supply to the cooker with a 13 amp fuse or can i just connect the cooker to the hob with a loop and use the 30 amp fuse in the fuse box.this question is aimed at qualified electricians. no jokers please. what are current iee regulations

Answer 1

When you say 'cooker' you obviously mean 'oven', which must be a single oven, since it has a flex fitted and requires a separate fuse. The way to make this comply is to connect a single socket or a FCU to the cooker connection point, at the same point as you connect the cooker, and plug or connect the oven to there. This will ensure that the oven is fused correctly (13 a) the 30amp circuit will cover the total as it would for a normal cooker. If you are not competent contact an electrician.

Answer 2

nooooooooooo if it says 13 amp stick to 13 amp my oven came with the same which can be fitted with a 13amp fused plug. if the hob has the same cable and says 13amp then do as it says and stick to 13 amp.

Answer 3

in the experience that your questioning of connecting them interior the comparable plug precise/switched fused spur then sure you do would desire to fuse them seperatly. it would be undesirable training to connect them at the same time and at 2.8kw/12.1Amps it is going to blow he 13amp fuse if each and every thing is on on the comparable time

Answer 4

Whether they are connected or not you will need a heavy cable 6mm² or higher to a twin pole cooker switch and then back to the consumer unit – with at least a 30amp mcb at the consumer unit.

Please, Please get a qualified electrician to at least help and supervise you. Please Please
