Induction hob.

Okay how about a 4 pole RCD located to the side of the CUs and a 4 pole isolator located near the hob?

Have you a copy of BS7671?

Still no, the circuit needs 1 overall point of isolation, which if you're taking it from 3 different CU's it obviously can't have.

sledgehammer and nut comes to mind.

Something definitely comes to mind!

I give up if you cannot give a sensible answer why bother at all!!!

I apologise for my post, but you have been given the most sensible answer a while ago - you need an electrician.

IT'S A BLOODY HOB, ffs. NOT A DOCKSIDE CRANE. JUST INSTALL A SINGLE PHASE 32a CIRCUIT USING 6.0MM CABLE

11Kw on 32A?

11Kw on 32A?

diversity applies here. average current will only be about 21A

Diversity , you have never seen my missus cooking. The hob has a total of nearly 16kw of cooking area but the load is limited by the hob to 11kw so the total current could be around 50A so a 32A circuit not exactly ideal. Hence my wanting to spread it over 3 phases.
