Hello, I am getting a new electric cooker installed,
The old cooker was connected by just having the cable from the control unit conected to the cooker directly with the wiring joined together and tape over it.
I know I need a terminal outlet box.
Can I fit this Directly behind the cooker?
I have about 18inches of cable from the control unit coming out the wall behind the cooker so the new terminal box would be about 12 inches below the hob level behind the cooker.
I just want to know if that is legal
Comet are delivering the new cooker and connecting it and I do not want them to say they can not connect it due to the box being in wrong place
Thank you for any comments
