Hi chaps,

My new Rangemaster duel fuel arrived today. I had a kitchen rewire carried out last week and and gas work done in preparation. The remainder gas work will be done next week but I was under the impression I could just wire the oven myself? Either way the supplier told me this is illegal work - if I have to get the electrician back then so be it.

Anyway, my issue is the termination block in the cooker is confusing me. I'm not sure if I'm missing parts or not. The last thing I need is for my electrician to come out and tell me parts are missing.

I have attached pictures of what I have, what the manual says and what I expected to see (from Google).

I went into Currys, the supplier, and the sales guy took and oven apart showed my a terminal block similar to image 3, dissimilar to mine in image 1.

Has anybody experience with these? Am I missing some parts?

Thanks, Tom

Just connect to the centre screw of each group of three.
Don't forget the cable clamp.

It is not illegal but it does not seem as if you should be doing it.

Currys told you it was illegal for you connect a cooker up? :eek:

So are you saying that you don't have one of these:

?

Which the manual says you should have?

If so, get onto Rangemaster and get them to send you one, or the parts to replace the jumpers you have.

I would advise against trying to get the conductors under the screws holding the jumper connections - you might not get a good connection, and if you get overheating problems as a result they'll probably blame you for not installing it as specified.
