Total novice, please help.Need to buy new cooker, single oven dual fuel. New ovens seem to come with a 13amp plug but I only have a point to hard wire.Can I cut the plug off and hard wire it in? Or could you recommend an oven? Many thanks.
What is cooker outlet plates job.Normaly is it not the case that cable is taken from CU to cooker isolater and then to cooker.RF Lighting said:Do you currently have an outlet plate behind the oven, and an isolator somewhere above the worktop in the kitchen?
Cooker outlet plate
So it means cable from CU goes to cooker/oven isolator switch above work services then it goes to cooker/oven outlet plate and then it goes to cooker/oven itself.Is this outlet plate rated 45 amp as isolator.plugwash said:sometimes its done that way but a cable just sticking out of the wall is messy especailly if the cooker needs to be changed for one with different cable requirements. The outlet plate forms the junction between the fixed wiring and the exposed loop of cable that goes to the cooker.
