Hey chaps was on a job today where the guy I was with was installing a hob. It was one that had a L1 & L2, N & E.
He wired it in and then later had a message from the customer saying one 2 or 4 rings heat up. It turned out he only connected the L1 to the connection unit. It was a 4 core cable that was pre wired so surely you just put the L1 & L2 conductors into the live at the connection unit. He said I was stupid and the L2 was for 2 phase only not when you use single phase.
