Relocating cooker supply

JayAr91 · Sep 9, 2019

I am currently training a electrician and after some advice.

A family member is relocating there kitchen in there house which means they need there cooker supply relocated.

What is the best around this...can it be junctioned rather than running a fresh?

Thanks in advance ...

it can be junctioned as long as the junction is capable of carrying the load, and either MF or accessible.

Good little job for training. Use these small exercises as a chance for research. All the following regs are relevant to making a jointed cable connection. There are others too.

132.16
133.2.2
513.1
Section 526
Chapter 64
Appx 4 for cable calcs

How do I determine this? is there a certain type of junction box I need to use?

What does mf mean?

If you are after a step by step guide to this job then that would be against the rules of the forum.
