[mickjones]

hello

very simple questio if you can help much appreciated

trying to wire the hob in for a new benix tricity cooker (the oven is in and works fine)

the problem is the small box that the wires go into - its german

there is a connection for earth, one for nuetral and TWO for live according to the wiring diagram - but we only have three wires in this country

so does anyone know what to do in this situation? do i need to get another bit?

many thanks in advance for any help offered

depends on how its wired. it could be split phase, hence the 2 lives. if so, providing the voltages are correct, you could connect live to both live terminals

more details and pics would be useful. then we might actually be able to tell you what to do
