Hi all
I'm going to be replacing a very old oven with a brand new one which is much more energy efficient. The old oven has a rating of 2.9kw and the new one is 0.95kw i was planning on just swapping out the oven and wiring the new oven into the Terminal Outlet Box. Could there be a problem if there is a fault because of the difference in efficiency?
For info the consumer unit at the moment uses MCBs, I plan on getting this replaced with an RCD unit in a few months once I've got the cash available.
Thanks
