    Smeg Cooker Cooling Fan

    The oven cooling fan in a Smeg A4-5 cooker needs attention/replacement – the bearings are noisy. Does anyone know whether the whole cooker has to be removed to access the fan? Also, I know the fan is a left-hand motor. Does anyone know its length? Thanks for any thoughts.

    Is 4mm heat resistant cable okay for 7.5kw range cooker?

    The electrician that installed my cooker circuit put in 10mm cable with a 32a fuse, a 45a cooker switch and 10mm cable to the backplate for behind the cooker. He put this size in as I didn't know what size cooker I was going to be getting. I ended up getting a 7.4kw range cooker and the...

    Are cooker outlets necessary!?

    Just wondering what everyone’s view on this is, if you’re mourning cooker or hob switch in cupboard close by. Would you still terminate into an outlet then go from there to cooker or hob? Or would you take the cable straight into the appliance

    Staying in zone with kitchen socket run with a cooker switch

    I'll start by saying - I have absolutely no intention of doing any wiring or anything electrical myself. You get someone professional to do a professional job - I know that. I just want to understand what I should consider so that I don't end up having to rip out or rework stuff afterwards. The...
