Good even,
I am having a new kitchen installed and i just wanna double check a few things, having spoken to a few sparkys at work i seem to have the just of it, however im looking for clarity before
getting quotes.
Back ground.
The kitchen is a complete rewire so that it will now have its own ring. (the house is old and ALL sockets runn of 1 ring main).
Moving the oven to other side of the kitchen plus installing a "double" this time round,
Current Oven selections are
3kW - Combi Oven
2.8kW - Oven.
My first question is, how should the ovens be wired?
One supr off a 40Amp breaker then Oven Switch to both?
One supr off a 40Amp breaker then 2x Oven Switchs chained that isolate either oven
Or 2 40A supurs to sockets to ovens? - Ive yet to see a CU that supplies 2x40A breakers.
the second question, size cale is needed for the run to the oven, ( ~10m run throught celing and wall) and what size cable for the flex to connect up to the ovens - looking through the manul is seems they suggessted 2.5mm^2 and thet seem small.... but then im no sparky.
