Cooker circuit info

[John90]

Hello all. I'll start by saying this is my first post. My name is John and I'm a maintenance engineer (electrical) from Scotland. Have found alot of cooker info on here but just to make surey My fully electric cooker is rated at 12925w and there is also a 45a fuse protecting and 6mm cable. Allowing the 10% + 30% of remaining amperage diversity plus 5a for the socket, I take it a 32A mcb would be sufficient with total after diversity at 28-29A. Assuming my calcs/interpretation of regs are correct.

Thanks

agreed but its. 10A, not 10%. i assume that was a typo. otherewise your calc. is OK.
