I am intending to run a spur from a socket to power the cooker hood via a metal faced switched FCU, the cooker hood is the no earth type (as most are these days),
I obviously intend to earth the switch but should i also earth the cooker hood even though it says "this appliance must not be earthed ?.and would a 3 amp fuse be ok or should i use a 5 amp
And i'm fitting a hob and single fan oven, the hob will be wired into the outlet box that is already on the wall, but can i simply run a spur (leg) from the radial cooker circuit via a plastic non switched FCU (13 amp) for the cooker?
And one last question are there any rules regarding routing ? the cooker hood cable will be about 8 feet and the cooker cable about 5 feet both laid out at 90 degrees (one either side of cooker) they will be through a mixture of lave and plaster and gysum plasterboard i intend to use conduit throughout as i'm a great believer in the old "belt and braces" school of doing things,i intend using 2.5mm cable throughout,
Is all this ok ,sorry about going on but i think it is best to ask questions properly the first time so as to avoid confusion,
by the way if any of you sparkys need advice on cooking (one of the best way to get into a birds knickers is to cook them a romantic meal) then i'm your man as i'm a chef ,share the knowledge thats what i say
THANKS DAVY
