you're a texter arent.'t you?

please try to type in something resembling english... it's very hard to read your question...

is your cooker connected to a cooker outlet plate? is this below the switch? which way do the wires come.?
get a multimeter and see which ones are still live when you switch the switch off..

these are the live wires from the fuse board.. and go in the feed side..

the other 2 are the cooker wires and go in the load side..

You will find in just about all technical forums, and in all forms of technical work, that accuracy and clarity of expression are essential. A misunderstanding can prove fatal.

If you want help, then take the trouble to express your query in proper langauge, ideally with correct spelling, punctuation and grammar. A missing comma can competely change the meaning of a sentence (read "Eat, Shoots and Leaves").

If you cannot be bothered to make the effort to do this, then you will get little help in this or any other technical forum. It's your loss, it's no skin off our noses.
