Hello All!
Background: I am installing a new kitchen and I am trying to install my electric single oven. At the moment I have a 45 amp supply to a Cooker control unit. The oven will use a max of 2.1 kW, and require the following depending on the connection:
13 A socket outlet/spur - Fuse 13 A min.
Cooker control unit - 15 A min. 20 A max
My question is can I connect to the CCU even thought the cooker only needs 13 A min, and there is a 45 A supply to the CCU? Would this burn out the cooker? I would prefer to use the CCU, since there would be no cable coming up from the oven to a 13 A socket.
Thanks in advance
