Hey all,
I am hoping for some insights into replacing an ageing electric cooktop (almost 30 years old) with a newer induction range. I am pretty handy and would greatly prefer to "do it myself" (and don't worry I'm not taking any revenue from you guys - I am an American in Germany and simply needing some insights into 220/240).
My current cooktop location has three 16amp breakers running to it, each with the traditional blue/brown/yellow+green. For clarification, the current cooktop is actually three stuck together - each with its own 16 amp breaker and wiring.
I am wanting to install the Sharp KH-9126CT00-EU:

Relevant is it needs 50 amps at 220v, so my three 16 amp breakers should be adequate (48 amps).
The wiring diagram for the new cooktop is as follows:
If you gentlemen could kindly make some suggestions as to how I should properly do this it would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
E
