    Cooker and Hob Installation

    I am currently renovating my kitchen and am considering swapping my standalone cooker for a hob/single oven combination. Would it be possible to use a dual appliance output plate on a 32A ring? The hob = 4.6Kw The oven = 3.65Kw or would they need to be on separate circuits? Thanks
