Check the fuse on oven circuit

[thegingerscot]

Hello,

I moved into a house that has this old Belling 100 Dual Fuel (Gas hobs and two electric ovens) the house doesn't have mains gas so the hobs are run via a set of Calor gas bottles outside the kitchen. The oven is old and 50% not working, so it's time to replace. Not a massive fan of the calor gas bottles so we are looking at getting an Induction hob, Currys are doing a deal and will fit and recycle the old oven. It says that it needs a 32A hard wire for this, from the reading I have done I believe the one we have at the moment also requires a 32A with 6mm wire, but it's very old and I can't find any manuals online and the Belling support people have said it's too old for them to caring that information. I don't want Curry's people to get here and say it's not possible.

So to get to the point. Is there a quick and easy way for me to check?

Cheers

Look at your MCB's or what ever, in the consumer unit, maybe take a photo and post it below..

Says 40 amp so not a problem.

Do I need to check that's its 6mm cable or am I just showing my lack of knowledge here and that's a given if it's a 40amp fuse?

If you can see part of the grey outer, you may find it is marked with the size or type. Then report back.
