Hi all,

I’m now ready to install my hob, I have a 32A MCB with 6mm T&E feeding a 50A rated switched supply at the worktop. The hob isn’t supplied with a power cable and the manual says it needs connected using a H03V2V2-F or H05BB-F cable with a temperature withstand of 90 deg C minimum. I’ve had a look on t’internet and am struggling to find anything above 2.5mm cable at that spec. The terminations in the hob look like they’ll struggle to accept much above that but with diversity, any thoughts on whether 2.5mm would cope?

2.5 is adequate. even without diversity applied, 7.5 kW = 31A.
