Bosch PIK870E01E electric hob

[handymannyswife]

Please can anyone help me.
We are have ripped out our old kitchen and have been given a Bosch PIK870E01E electric hob but there is a problem. It has 6 wires in the cable; black brown blue white and 2 earth green/yellow. I am a little concerned because I don't think the electrician is totally familiar with this wiring and I'm not sure I want him to proceed. Can anyone shed some light on how this cabling works please![/b]

Are you sure it white rather than grey?

How old is it? Where did it come from?

No manual/instructions with it? What does it say on the data plate?

Definitely white wire, not grey. No instructions as it came out of friends house who sold up and moved abroad. We just thought it could just be wired up. We do know that it had to go into a 30am cooker switch. It's maybe 2/3 years old. Just desperate to get info on it!

You'll HAVE to get the manufacturer's instructions. Unless anyone else on here has wired up one of these themselves, anything we tell you would just be a guess.

Sorry.

It is very confusing running two threads....

Have you opened up the end where these coloured cores are attached to see if the terminals are marked?
