Hi all
I am totally clueless when it comes to this stuff so really really appreciate your help here!
I am having a new kitchen done (back of the house, after you walk through passage/landing)
Currently i have a free standing all in 1 gas cooker/oven/grill. it has a normal plug - i think this is for the oven and grill part as the hob works on gas pipe?????
i also have a separate mircowave on the worktop. standard plug.
but i wish to get a tall larder style unit which will encompass my new oven/grill and microwave like at this link:
http://sheratonblog.omegaplc.co.uk/painted-timber-shaker/
and have my HOB integrated into the worktop nearby - you know where the cut into the worktop.
my understanding was that i would continue to have my gas pipe feed the back of my hob appliance i will buy.
and my microwave and oven/grill can be placed into the larder until and use my normal plug socket
but now a colleague has said i need to have the thicker wire run from my fuse box. 6mm?
My "fuse box" is at the front of the house!! and iv had the landing recently floored and ceiling painted so i really cant interrupt this now!
the only possible option is i have another electrical unit in the upstairs landing for electric shower. except we dont use that shower. and i think that used the thicker cable. can i run this down into the kitchen - it would just come down the ceiling and into the kitchen floor - which is not done yet.......and power up what i need to power up??
on currys website: within the filter of "installation" - you can choose 13amp plug supplied....does this mean i can plug and play as such for the oven? therefore not need to run anything extra? are these ovens not that good however?
it then has another filter option of "13 amp plug required" - what does this mean?? why wouldn't they just give you the plug for the appliance? like the filter above....
do microwaves require certain power? or is it just the oven / grill??
finally you have a filter choice "hard wiring required" mean? is that running the new thick 6mm cable?
where does does the 6mm cable even plug into? from fuse box to where? back of appliance? (oven)
sorry for being so dumb on this matter!
please see my pictures for pic of my fuse box and the shower unit upstairs - pic 2 and 3. i never touch this as electric shower is pretty lame compared to normal tap shower method!
