I currently have 45amp cooker switch feeding a standalone electric cooker (oven and hob)
I am replacing this with separate electric oven and electric hob.
I understand the hob needs to be fed from the cooker switch - no problem there with the existing set up.
The oven however has a 13 amp plug, should the socket for this be taken from the normal ring or from the cooker switch, I see people with an oven with wires rather than a plug run this from a double outlet plate and I guess it makes sense for this to be switchable from the cooker switch, but I worry about the load...?
Also the hob will be directly above the oven, should the outlet plate for the hob be behind the oven or behind the adjacent cupboard? I assume the oven socket should be at the back of the adjacent cupboard to be accessible
All electrics are to be signed off and notified etc..
