    Adding a dual appliance outlet plate to cooker circuit

    Hi, I want to add a 32a induction hob and 13a oven to my cooker circuit. I was going to make the current single outlet dual and then upgrade the MCB from 32a to 45a. See photos of current setup. Does this sound doable? Thanks Phil

The oven had a glass lid which, when lowered, automatically isolated the supply to the hobs. I have noted it down as C3 due to the existing cooker lid covering...
