Hi All
We are at the early stages of a self-build project and my query
Is regarding wiring ovens under the new 17th edition regs.
We are planning to have 2 separate single ovens and are aware
That oven elements can cause RCD’s to trip due to current leakage.
The ovens will be on the opposite side of a 100MM stud wall from the C.U.
So if they are fed directly off the switch in the C.U. does that mean
They will the have to run in protected cable (wire armour) under the
New regs?
Would also like to know any views on having a single or separate
feeds from the C.U. for the ovens. The ovens will probably be rated
3.7KW
Are there any other appliances that can have earth leakage problems?
Thanks in advance
Ian
