    Connecting two 13amp appliances to the cooker circuit.

    The photo was taken when the old 6.6k ceramic hob was connected to the circuit which had the thicker cable. The new induction hob had a more conventional domestic appliance type cable with a moulded plug. The oven was replaced last year and I reused the cable from the old oven. To be honest I...

    Connecting two 13amp appliances to the cooker circuit.

    Both user manuals state they are 13amp. The hob itself had a plug connected which has been cut off and wired directly into the circuit.

    Connecting two 13amp appliances to the cooker circuit.

    The oven is 2.3kw and the hob which is induction is max 3kw

    Connecting two 13amp appliances to the cooker circuit.

    I have a hardwired 13a hob and 13a oven that is connected to the cooker circuit. The circuit has a 32a MCB. Do I need a seperate spur for both the oven and hob for protection? Thanks

    Wiring in a 13A induction hob

    Thanks everyone, this seems a bit less clear cut than originally thought. The hob was only fitted as a stop gap until we get our kitchen replaced. I really don’t want to start messing with wiring if I can help it. Is there any plug and play induction hob solutions I can use in my existing setup...

    Wiring in a 13A induction hob

    Yes that does, what you are saying makes perfect common sense to me. Thank you! I really didn’t want to faff around with adding a 13a spur to the circuit if it wasn’t necessary. It’s been connected for the last couple of weeks and so far so good. That includes having the oven on for well over...

    Wiring in a 13A induction hob

    Okay the breaker is 32a. Can I just ask why it needs to have its own fuse when the old 6600w ceramic hob I removed was hardwired into the circuit?

    Wiring in a 13A induction hob

    Ah crap! Yeah I have already wired it in to the connection plate. The cooker switch has a socket built into it. I guess I should drill a hole into the worktop and rewire the plug then connect. The breaker I think is 45a

    Wiring in a 13A induction hob

    I managed to pickup a cheap Lamona 1802 induction hob. I didn’t realise at the time it was a 13A hob with a built in plug. I currently have a single fan oven and ceramic hob which is hard wired into a connector plate. Without causing risk of a fire am I able to cut the plug off and hardwire...

    Loose stair rail bracket

    My only concern is that the holes are now bigger than they originally were so they would need filling in order for the plugs to fit properly?

    Loose stair rail bracket

    I'm pretty sure it is thermalite. Would something like this: https://www.toolstation.com/rawlplug-r-kem-ii-polyester-resin/p52276 be a better option for filling the holes then? Or am I better off filling it with mortar and which would then allow me to redrill it?

    Loose stair rail bracket

    Great thanks, I’ll get some dowels, no more nails and filler tomorrow then. I have managed to cut a spacer with a holesaw from an old piece of plywood I have and it’s fairly level now. Hopefully it will be nice and secure once done

    Loose stair rail bracket

    Hi all, I'm a bit of novice so apologies if I use the wrong terminology! I noticed the other day that the bottom bracket on the stair rail was loose. I unscrewed it and under the bracket a thick 1.5cm wedge of plaster was all broken and split. I removed all the loose plaster and it's taken it...
