Is my idea possible? (New oven)

[grazing cows]

Hi, we have an integrated kitchen with 4 Neff appliances built in. It’s a newish flat and would be very difficult to get a new mains cable from the fuse box to the kitchen.

We want a second oven and are willing to lose the coffee maker in order to get one. We have found one that will fit, and we were initially thinking that it would be a simple case of removing the coffee a maker and replacing it with the oven.

We know the oven has to be hard wired by an electrician; the coffee maker leaves a statndard socket free - not a proper oven socket. Would is be possible to use this socket, or could a spur be taken from the main oven cable to create a feed for the new oven? The main oven is also protected by its own circuit breaker and appears to have a free ‘slot’.

I would be very grateful for your thoughts, and hope that our idea will work!

I should add that the new oven has a current of 13A according to the Neff literature.

My question is, would such an oven be able to be connected to an ordinary 13amp socket, or, can the oven/cooker socket that is already there have a spur run from it to create a new oven socket for the new one?

I don’t really want to get someone out to look if it’s a non starter.

Thanks,

You may want to repost this in the electric forum.

They will be all over it like a rash...

Thanks dishman, I’ll re-do it!

This has now been moved to ‘electrics’.
