Thank you both for your replies. I ran this past a builder friend earlier who suggested the below - would be grateful if you could let me know if you foresee any issues with this method: 32a from CU to cooker switch in 6mm cable (already in situ). Cable from cooker switch to feed a cooker...

Understood. Won’t you need the dual appliance connector plate to connect the two appliances together to then feed into the cooker switch? Or can the connection to both appliances be made inside the cooker switch itself?

How would it work to wire up a hob and oven to seperate cooker switches if there is only one direct feed from CU? Essentially the question is how would the oven cooker switch get the power from the current hob setup of: CU >> Cooker switch >> Outlet plate? The connector plate is attached, one...

I was thinking that the setup (if a dual appliance connector plate is used) would be; CU >> Dual Connector plate >> cooker switch x2 >> outlet plate x2 (x2 as one to hob and one to oven)?

Thanks for your reply. Yes, I mean the cable from the 32A switch on consumer unit. Would it be possible for both the hob and oven to share the same 45A cooker switch if there is no stipulation that both appliances must be situated within 2m of the switch itself? Of course I’d label it up...

Hello all, After some advice please. Currently have a 32A switch on my consumer unit with a 6mm T&E cable going to a cooker switch in the kitchen - unsure what appliance this fed before. I am wanting to add an electric induction hob and oven that I understand both need to be wired into a...

Thanks for confirming. Will give it a go at the weekend and will report back. Thanks.

Thanks for that - and just to confirm that the below is the correct order? 1) turn off electricity at the mains 2) open the large box with the battery in it 3) disconnect the battery 4) place a short on the pins (flathead screwdriver) 5) turn electricity on at the mains (with screwdriver...

Was thinking that as the obvious, but not sure of the risks associated with shorting the wrong parts of the PCB? As I don’t have the jumper supplied with the board, what alternative can I use? Was thinking of some copper cable or a screwdriver? The diagram is spot on with the location of the...

Hello all - sorry to resurrect this thread. Where are the NVM pins on this pcb? The manual diagram shows separate mains fail disable pins and nvm reset link, but on the circuit board I can only see 4 pins these could relate to? Which are the NVM pins that I need to short together on restart to...

Good shout - thanks. I am happy with the location of the panels, sensors and RPK panel, would it be possible for an installer to use the existing wiring and simply replace the sensors and the pcb etc and wire up to a new system? Of course I’ll ask the installer the question but just to give me...

Thank you for this, really helpful. So just so I’ve got the order right in my mind, the steps are: 1) turn off electricity at the mains 2) open the large box with the battery in it 3) disconnect the battery 4) place a short on the pins (screwdriver/wire etc) 5) turn electricity on at the mains...

Thanks for the replies so far. Just a few questions: 1) If I have to link the NVM reset pins together, is there a specific type of cable/wire I would need to use? It it just a case of holding the wire against the pins whilst someone turns the power back on (with battery disconnected)? 2) when...

Hello all, I am really hoping that you can help… I have recently bought a house that I am renovating to move into. There is a Pyronix Paragon Super alarm system installed. I do not have any codes, and cannot contact the seller for them. I have downloaded the annual and have tried using the...
