We're looking at putting an induction hob into our new kitchen, but I'm finding myself staggered at the amount of current these things can draw. the one that we're looking at, the Miele KM5975 is rated at 11.3kw at full tilt.
I was considering using a grid but i think that's out of the question due to the lack of sufficiently rated grid switching.
My question is how do people balance the result of diversity calculations with the likely possibilty that all cooking areas on the cooker will be on full power at the same time? It would be reasonably simple for me to put the hob on its own 45 amp radial and ccu, is that what most would do?
