Hello all, excuse my bad grammar spelling etc. today i had the people from building control around to sign of my cu change
at my house,here is my question. My mum had her oven changed a little while ago and it has a design current of around 10.5 amps, the old fuse protecting was a 40 amp wired in a 10mm t+e, i have since replaced this with a 16 amp breaker and put connecters at old cooker switch and a blank plate. I done this as section h of osg states you can do this and dont need a switch if the circuit breaker is to be used as one. The inspector told me this is not Good and my interpretation is wrong. And i need a local isolation switch. I want to know what others opinion was on this he also said the oven is not fixed equipment? If im wrong fine but how do i remedy the situation its a double box do i just put the old cooker switch back on. I did do a little search before posting but could not really find what i was looking for. Any advice greatly appreciated!
