Changing hob from gas to electric

Glyn1959 · 2026-10-25T16:53:56+0000

Currently I have a gas hob and want to change to electric.
The electric oven is hard wired (6mm & 32A mcb) and a dedicated cooker switch.
Can I run 6mm cable from existing switch to the hob
or
should I replace with double cooker switch
or
do I need a dedicated cable and bcc separate from the oven?
Advice appreciated. Thx

You can connect to the existing switch.

6mm is plenty for hob and oven
