Maybe so ,but i don't think anyone in this country would go to all that trouble to fit a 16amp socket ? also one could argue that bosch don't really take the UK in to account when making these hobs.
Also as stated ,the protection is really for the cable and not the hob,if there is a fault...
Thanks all for replying..if i was told that i could use the click 45 dual outlet plate from the off ,as the 16 amp euro socket really don't apply here ,then i would have got my answer a lot quicker lol .Instead i was told to have a 16amp fitted or that is what i presumed was said.
Thanks
Hi Guys,
Thanks for the response to my questions..Sorry not replied earlier only been away.
So i have now decided to go with the click dual out let plate and use 6mm T&E for connecting both appliances as 6mm should fit ok in the click 45 dual outlet plate.

I have found out that the oven should be protected by a 16amp fuse..Can anyone link me to the best socket to do the job ,would prefer a decent quality one..Thanks
Hi Adam_151,
Thanks for the reply..Would it not work using my exsisting sockets without adding another ?? what if i used the dual outlet plate but used 6mm for hob and 4mm for oven instead of the 4mm/2.5mm ??
