Hi there,
I have a cooker circuit that i`d like to use to supply the power to a conservatory that i`m building at the moment. The cooker circuit is being fed from a 32a mcb and terminates in a standard 13a double socket above the cooker. I have a gas cooker so the socket is only being used to power the ignition/clock.
I looked at previous posts regarding using the use of a dedicated cooker supply and spurring from this and I gather it is generally frowned upon but this really is my best option, its by a long way the nearest socket to the conservatory. Would it be possible to run a cable from this socket through the wall to a mini CU in the conservatory to supply a light and a couple of sockets?. Would I need to feed the mini CU with the same rated cable that feeds the cooker socket and then step down the cable to smaller cable out of the mini CU?
Cheers.
