Hi,
Ive been reading through these forums lots lately, and the general concensus seems to be that you cannot plug an electric hob into a 13 amp 3pin socket.
However, I have been assured by Whirlpool (who make the ignis ceramic hob that I want) that I can do this. I do not know the rating of the hob, as I have not bought it yet, but I have spoken to three different people in their technical department. Can anyone clarify for me please?
I also have another question if you dont mind.
I have no gas, so thats out of the question.
On the wall, there is a double faceplate which has 45amp cooker switch/3 pin plug socket. It is wired up in 6mm. Can I convert this to a normal double socket? I have a single oven, which is fitted with a 3 pin plug (13amp fuse) that I would like to plug into it, but also need to plug the hob in (dont scream at me!), and figured they would be best together on this cicuit seeing as there is no other load on it (if you get my drift)
Thanks in advance
