Thanks for any help
There is usually a label on the back of the hob with wiring information.One is an earth and I presume the others are 2 live and 2 neutral but I am unsure which is which and the manual doesn't say.
You need an outlet plate to which the wiring can be directly connected. If you currently have a socket for a plug, this will need to be changed.I already have a standard power socket behind the oven.

Thanks for any help
Why? Electricity is three times the cost of gas and is less controllable.
is an induction hob that much better?? Dont you need special pans?How do we know that it isn't an induction hob?
You need pans which are suitable for induction, as in those made from steel or with steel in the base. That covers the majority of pans.Dont you need special pans?
If I had to have an electric hob it would be the only type I would choose.is an induction hob that much better??
Either way... I get the impression that the current cooker control unit can then feed a single power socket for the current oven (dont know the rating on the oven but it came with a 13A plug on it) and a cooker connection unit for a new hob?
If the 32A circuit breaker only does the oven/hob via the red switch on the wall, that is ok.
A 32A colour coded blue?The breaker in the consumer unit is 32amp (blue colour).
A 32A colour coded blue?
What make of CU is it?
