[QUOTE="freedomrun, post: 244107, member: 7914"] Domestic Oven and Hob is connected to an existing 45 AMP isolator (including socket outlet) with 6mm T&E back to the CU (about 8 m away) with 30mA RCD & 45A MCB (all existing) new oven rated at 2100W and Hob at 7000W. The 6mm from the isolator goes to a JB on the wall behind the cooker where a 2.5mm T&E supplies the Cooker and a 4mm T&E supplies the HOB. Customer has asked me to check what the Kitchen fitting firm has done, the instructions with the Cooker say that it should be connected to a DP isolator of minimum 20A and a cct protective device of 13A minimum and cable of 1.5mm Minimum. The Hob has no information regarding cable or ratings. If i had installed then i would have put the oven on it's own isolator - but can i tell the customer that the oven is well protected with both the oven and hob connected to the same MCB? I hope this makes sense. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
