Hi there,
I'm about to install a new kitchen and would like some advice on installing the wiring for the new appliances.
The kitchen oven and hob were originally gas as there was no cooker circuit installed at that time. My new appliances are electric. The plan is to have the oven, warming drawer and microwave integrated in the one cabinet and hob seperate.
According to the manufacturers specs, all 4 appliances will run on a standard 13 A ring main, but I'm not comfortable with that to be honest.
My initial thoughts were to wire in the hob and oven into a double outlet box from the cooker switch and have the warming drawer and microwave just plugged into a double 13A socket on the wall.
If I need to put in the cooker circuit, what cable, MCB and various sockets would I need?
All help would be most appreciated.
