hob

Hi all, Have a 900mm gas hob that I need to install on a 1000mm set of pan drawers. But as I see it, the width of the hob means I would have to cut out most of the support at the front of the unit to be able to fit it in because of it's depth. Have a 20mm work surface which is easy enough to...

Hello, we are renovating our kitchen and have installed (or rather, are installing) an induction hob (Hisence I6433C). We are really happy with the size of the hole we cut - the appliance fits snug, however the hob has a metal frame underneath (I've lifted the hob in one image to show you this)...

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...

Hoping someone can help. I recently had a B&Q kitchen installed (by their fitters) and there is a fairly sizeable gap between the hob and wooden worktop (image attached). The fitters have said they can’t get the hob any tighter but to me the gap seems too big. Could anyone please advise if a...

Hello. I've just had an induction hob fitted, a Hotpoint with flexi space. After first use of a new frying pan and 3rd use of a new saucepan, some weird marks have formed on the pattern of the hob ring, they have turned a silver colour in patches... see photos (very tricky to pick up in a photo...

Hi, I would like to give thanks to every member of this forum, I have been watching and read upon many posts for the past few years and have learned a lot. I apologize in advance but I would very much like some advice on electrical work which has been completely messed up by a cowboy kitchen...

We're in the process of renovating our kitchen. We've removed the existing tiles, and in the splashback area above the hob we found a small mdf patch hiding a junction box. I'll let the pictures do the talking but wanted advice on whats best to do. It doesn't power the hob, oven or extractor...

We bought a hob to replace the old one, and got a B&Q halogen hob. These come pre wired with 4mm 5 wire configuration. At the plug/socket end Two connected live's, two connected neutral's and 1 earth. Not knowing this, thinking would be three pin plug arrangement. I'm stumped a little. Looking...

Hello, I am replacing an old double electric oven with a slightly smaller single oven. The old one was hard wired using 40amp cable to a switch box in an adjoining cupboard. The new oven appears to come with a 13 amp cable (without plug). I am assuming this new oven will need to be fused at...

I’m in the middle of replacing a cracked electric hob with an induction hob. I’ve removed the old hob- it appears to have the twin and earth supply cable hard wired into the hob. There is no junction box visible. The replacement hob comes with an attached cable. On removing the covering plate...

Hi sorry if this has been asked before but I’m new to the forum. I’ve recently brought a rangemaster from eBay for a bargain of £205! Bar the hob, everything works on it perfectly, however I was aware/made aware the hob ran on bottle rather than mains! So the hobs only get a tiny flame even...

We are having a gas hob installed by a gas safe plumber on a labour only basis and I need to source something to connect to the 1/2" male thread on the hob to the pipework. I was under the impression that any 1/2" female fitting that will join to 15mm copper by solder or compression fitting...

Hi I am fitting 3 electric hobs (domino hobs so 30cm induction/30cm grill/30cm teppanyaki) on an island with them being 3kw/3kw/3.7kw loads and each has 1.5m flex cable. Do I need to take 3 x 6mm T&E from CU to each one via separate cooker switches or can I do with less cabling e.g. 1 x 10mm T&E...

Hi - I currently have a 6mm radial (32MCB) to a 45amp cooker isolation switch (above worktop level) with a 6mm connection into a CCU. The radial runs under a timber floor, into a skirting duct then is clipped to the wall behind the units - No RCD protection. I want to replace the CCU with a duel...

Hi not sure if this is gas regs, electricity regs or building regs, so... I want to install a recirculating extractor hood in a cabinet over a gas hob. I am aware of the requirement for 750mm height clearance, but one article I found also said that you aren't allowed to use the RECIRCULATING...

Hi, im fitting new kitchen units but keeping my electric oven and ceramic hob. On taking them out i can see 6mm t n e surface clipped coming from the ccu above, it goes straight into the hob connection , but then the oven flex is in there aswell ! Is that OK ? It looks dodgy to me, i thought...

Our oven, an electric fan, is wired into a normal plug socket on a 13 amp plug. Our hob is wired into the fuse box on a 32amp breaker. at Christmas the tripped twice - we were using all the rings at once. Since the over is wired to the supply socket that seemed to be for the hob and the hob is...
