and this induction hob

Hob is rated at 7kw ,and oven is rated at 5.9kw ..so a total of 12.9kw .

Total amperage is 56amp .

I have a ccu without a socket on ,my consumer unit protection for the cooker circuit is 32amps.

If i apply diversity for both combined then the current is 23.82 amps.

Now some say that applying diversity to an induction hob is different ,but when speaking to an appliance installer (mainly cookers) he says diversity is ok even though there is a boost option the hob will never reach full power .

I am thinking of connecting the hob to the cooker outlet plate with 6mm T&E and also connecting the oven to the same cooker outlet plate using 6mm T&E but swapping out my outlet plate for a dual outlet plate to accommodate both the cables.

Cooker is no more than 2m away from ccu.

What do you guys think.? p.s by the way the oven will be under worktop with hob above.
