Hi,
I have a double oven and hob wired in at the moment. I need to wire them into a new circuit breaker but I was wondering what is the max rating I should go to considering the wiring is only 6mm?
Hob = 7.1 kW
Oven = 5.4 kW
Therefore an ideal MCB would be 52A but surely I can\\\'t get that current safely over 6mm wire? Is 32A really the max I can go to?
(Oh using 240v by the way...)
