We have bought a new electric cooker and gas hob with the usual electric ignition.
We have a cooker connection which has a 40amp mcb within the main fuse box which is in an adjacent cupboard.
The cooker says that it requires a 16amp connection, so I am aware this needs to be wired direct to the connection.
Two questions. (1) Should the 40amp mbc be changed to a lower rating?
(2) Can the gas ignition be connected to the cooker connection?
