double oven and induction hob wiring.

[bigjag]

All, I am changing my kitchen and installing a built in double oven 5.3 kw with an induction hob 5.6kw, my old cooker wiring supply is 6mm from CU via a 32A mcb cable length to cooker switch with socket is 6m.
My question is can I use the same cooker switch and cable for my new cooker and hob which will both be within 1m of the cooker switch.
Thanks

Hi

Run a new 6mm feed for one of the other appliances - much better. As far as I am aware, diversity applies to single ovens - not double.

Do you share a kitchen with scoobybott?

Thanks for info I was going to do this but need to strip out daughters built in bedroom and laminate floor to do the cable run was just trying to see IF it was a necessity?

Is there no other way to run the cable? Think about in trunking along the top of wall cupboards, in any boxing-in where your water pipes run, in trunking under the base cupboards, under the kitchen floorboards? Have a good look around before you do anything harsh. The most obvious cable route may have been staring you in the face.
