hi just a word of help here i have a cooker point 30amp which is used for hard wiring a hob and also a oven which i will plug in via a 13amp socket.
what i would like to know is

1. can i add to this circuit

2. as the wiring is 6mm for cooker do i use a 2.5 for a double switch point, this will be used for kettle,mixer etc or do i keep to 6mm throughout

3 or should i leave the cooker circuit alone and try and take a spur off ring circuit ?

sorry if electrical grammer is not perfect, just need to be sure.


thanks for any help. reg
 
you could take a single socket for the oven from the cooker isolator. use 6mm. for the kettle, etc., i would come from the ring final.
 
hi, thanks for your quick reply. i think im not explaining the position properly, so will try again, sorry for this....i have a cooker switch which also has a plug in point for oven.
so if i join another double pole switch to this circuit i should use 6mm throughout and not mix different ratings.
this cooker point 30amp at board with a 30amp rcd.
i wonder if adding another double pole switch would be too much and it would be better to use ring main and leave cooker point alone for just hob and oven

ring final?

thanks for your help reg
 
leave cooker circuit as is, and take socket from ring.
