Hi, I was looking into getting an induction hob to replace the current ceramic one that is very cheap and doesn’t heat well.
I pulled out the oven to see what kind of setup was going on with the wiring and found that the oven is wired into the back of the hob (pic attached). I’ve swapped out an oven before and it was just a case of wiring it into the cooker connection unit, except that this place doesn’t have that and the wire from the CU is just coming out of the wall.
Is it safe to wire the oven into the new hob the way it currently is? If so then I could just wire in the new hob like for like. Or would I be better getting an electrician in to sort out a cooker connection unit?
