A number of factors would have to be considered
What it is power rating (in watts) of the new hob?
What it is power rating (in watts) of the new oven?
What is cross sectional area of the cable supplying the hob and oven
How is the cable routed to the oven/hob - does it go through any insulation etc
Perhaps you should get an electricain in to quote you and make sure it will be safe.
