Hello
Hope someone might be able to help.
Bought a new ceramic hob to swap over, usually a straight forward process for 230v but the way the original hob is wired has thrown me or do I just double up the L N and E.
Img 4124 shows the current hob wiring, it is a 6 core flex occupying all terminals except a bridger between terminal 2 & 3.
At the other end of the hob cable both lives, neutrals and earths are crimped which run into a junction box.
Img 4126 shows the terminals for the new hob to which there are 5. I understand the hob can be wired in a number of ways 230v 400v 2 and 3 phase but I suppose its thrown me as the original wiring doesn’t align with the standard 230v wiring suggested using 3 core cable.
Photos shown of wiring options on the underside of the hob, any guidance appreciated is there option to use existing cable if so which terminals are to be used. 3, 4 and earth seem the obvious for 230v but having an existing 6 core flex leaves some not terminated?
