Heat resistant wire

studeywebs · 19 Oct 2014

Hi Community,

I brought a single electric oven 13A, 2.3Kw 240v

But it came with no cable, I've been told I can use 3 CORE HEAT RESISTANT FLEX CABLE 1.5MM which i can pick up at wickes (close by)

Is this suitable and good for long term - see link http://www.wickes.co.uk/Wickes-3-Core-Heat-Resistant-Flex-Cable-1-5mm-x-10m/p/204859

The only other cables are 6A and 28A - and i do not want a 2 core cable

let me know if this is fine - i think so

Hi, yes that's fine. But do not use 10m between the oven and connection !

Kind regards,

DS

Suitable for your oven? Yes
Suitable for the health of your wallet? Probably not
