Breaker size for Double Oven.

[Generator]

Your comments appreciated please:

New Neff Double Oven - 28A total load. Oven tail 4mm 3c butyl HO7 35A rated.
Feed 6mm T&E, to a 40A oven switch with 13A socket.
Circuit breaker - 40A or 32A ?

thanks,
John.

Hi John - I'd use one bigger than the load but smaller than the cable

a 32A MCB would be my choice. this would be adequate for the load.

That oven will NEVER pull 28A.

Yep would agree with 32a, might have been OK with 40amp if cable was 10mm2
