fitting a new kitchen and when replacing cooker hood with almost identical new one noticed that it is on a fused spur from the lighting ring for downstairs which supplies five lights. Used to have problems with lights blowing maybe this is the cause. My big problem though was I was wishing to connect to this fused spur for the electric ignition of a gas hob. I have done the wiring and it is functioning. I wanted a coffee and as there is no kitchen I plugged it in to the new spur socket from the light mains and no surprise it tripped. Question will the cooker hood and hob ignition do the same I would test but do not want to unpack items. I have friends that are electricians and I am a general builder so re-wiring the councils questionable work is possible but I need this kitchen done as misses and kids have moved out for duration and xmas just round the corner.
