GETTING THINGS READY
CHOICE OF ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
l
There are two possible ways to connect your
cooker, please choose from the most appropriate
after reading the descriptions.
a) It is recommended that this appliance is wired
with suitably rated cable (min 13A), into fixed
wiring using a double pole isolator with at least
3mm contact separation in all poles and neutral,
located within 2m of the appliance. If this fixed
wiring circuit is only supplying the cooker, then a
fuse of 13A (or circuit breaker) should be
incorporated. When the circuit combines oven
and hob, then wire and fuse rating should be
increased accordingly.
b) If you wish to connect an oven and a hob to a
cooker point you can:-
i) By connecting the oven and hob separately
to the cooker point. Oven and hob units
should be separately connected to a control
panel. In this case the cooker should be
operated from 6mm² twin core, and earth,
PVC insulated multicore cable. See Fig. 1.
ii) By connecting the cooker point to the hob
and then connecting to the oven. Provided
that the hob manufacturer permits it, connect
the oven to the hob and the hob to the
cooker point using the same cabling as
described in (a) above. Check the hob
terminal block is large enough to take two
cables and is of suitable rating. If not b) i)
above must be used. See Fig. 2.
NOTE: 13 amp cable is not suitable for
connecting this application.
