Existing 10Amp cooker is fed by 6mm from main consumer unit (32A MCB) to cooker switch then 6mm fed to a 13Amp double socket, off that is one plug for supply to cooker and one plug for igniter for gas hob.
I have a 16Amp rated oven coming and would like to install a 45Amp rated cooker plate and keep existing double socket for gas igniter. Will be replacing MCB in consumer unit to 20Amps.
I am guessing the cooker cabling is done in a radial so my question is from new 45Amp cooker plate shall I just wire a cable from this to existing socket also in 6mm or can I reduce this cable size from 45Amp plate to socket???
