Hi,
I have just brought a house that has a Hotpoint SH33K oven built in in the kitchen. The spec sheet on this oven states that the power supply cable should be 3 x 1.5mm.
Max current draw for this oven is 2400W
The previous owner has this oven hooked up to a fused (13a) spur off the 2.5mm t&e kitchen ring main.
I am suspicious that this is acceptable?
Or, should I run a separate circuit in with 6mm cable and a suitable cooker switch?
Obviously, if it is OK then I don't particularly want to run a new circuit in if I don't have to
Thanks
Jim
