16Amp oven connected to 32A shared

[coloured]

I have a 32amp mcb for an oven. The oven is connected to a 2 gang cooker switch. Is it okay to plug a pizza oven rated at 16amp. this is not for permanent use just like one a week for an hour or so. I wont be using any other appliance at the same time.

What is the load of the oven in kW?

No, it’s not OK to fit a 13A plug to a 16A pizza oven.

at the back of the oven it says, 240 V AC 1/N/PE

where is this rating stated?

the guy I bought from said that it is 16Amp

In order to determine the actual current needed, we need to know the power consumption in kW. Then we can determine what the actual current requirement is. 16A may just be stated because it's designed to plug into a continental 16A radial circuit.

No dependable source, then.

And you don't know the make and model?

There is normally a sticker around the inside door area.
