Hi there. I have recently had my 2 bedroom house re-wired. I am currently looking for a cooker, preferably electric freestanding. My electrician has just informed me that I must find a cooker with a max of 9.5 kw, or buy a gas hob/electric oven combo. The reason for this is because he has installed two 6mm earth cables to connect to the cooker. What I want to know is if this is normal and can electric freestanding cookers use two cables? As it is hard to find an electric cooker under 9.5kw! and I do not want to buy a gas hob/electric oven combo as my kitchen is not fitted for this.
Thank you.
Thank you.
