There is a cooker hood and 2.5kw single oven being installed in the middle of the attached picture.
The most economical way to chase the wiring in for them I've drawn on in green, but is this the right way?
I'm going to convert the socket into a double box for FCU's for the oven and hood.
The floor is solid, the wiring for the original socket is fed over the ceiling behind dot and dab plasterboard. The builder left a loop on one of the ring cables - the intention was for it to feed an FCU inside a cupboard, but "The Mrs" has gone for a chimney style hood now, so chasing is now required.
The alternative for the hood I thought would be to feed/chase as back up following the ring cable, then chase it left near the ceiling. For the oven I would have chased down to below worktop depth and then across to behind the oven.
Any ideas?
btw, converting that loop into an FCU and chasing from that would be 'hideous' as the lady put it.
