Hey there So I've recently bought a new double oven and a separate gas hob.

Where the old oven was, there is a 45a cooker switch that has 6mm cable which goes to the fuse box under a 40a breaker, the cooker switch feeds a double socket under the counter that is also wired with 6mm.

The oven doesn't have a cable attached, so I assume that it would need to be hard wired. The oven manual says that total power consumption is 4kW, and the cable type should be minimum H05W-FG 3 x 2.5mm or equivalent.

The gas hob manual says fuse:3a, cable type min. H05V2V2-F 3 x 0.75mm or equivalent.

My question is what would the correct way to wire them both in be?

FWIW I'll answer it as if it were me doing the job.
I'd be using 1.5mm 3183p or y for the hob (more out of preference) and plug this into the socket.
Then I would add a cooker connection unit to the double socket via 6mm T&E, then run more 6mm T&E to the oven and charge you between £85-£125
