We are currently renovating our old-ish house. Recently we had a new electic meter installed, and the chap who did it \\\'down-graded\\\' our main breaker to 60Amps. Apparently the tails weren\\\'t big enough to support more.
I now want to install a new range cooker, and the one I have my eye on rates at 14.7Kw (Max - when all added up), which is 63.91 Amps (if I\\\'ve worked it out right). Does this mean that I can\\\'t get this cooker? With diversity is it possible, or even sensible? I\\\'m not sure if the hob and oven sections can be wired seperately. In which case maybe I could wire two isolated circuits, one for each?
Any suggests or tips?
Thanks
David.
