I have recently had a new kitchen fitted and lost part of the hob terminal block. I have since wired it back in and covered with electrical tape but not sure how safe it is, with it being close to the top of the oven. I have searched the internet to try and find a new terminal block lid but...

Hi bought a new electric cooker and gas hob
Have a 6mm cable with isolator above worktop and a junction box behind cooker
Because the gas hob is only ignition needed for electrics can I just wire it to the 6mm cooker junction box and the isolator will control both

Hello all,
After some advice, a customer of mine has an aga and his wife has got terminal brain cancer meaning she keeps putting stuff on the hot aga forgetting it's on, sometimes even burning herself. He has come to me asking me to fit an oven and a hob for them alongside the aga so they can...

Hi all ,
Git a gas hob here on a 6.0mm , it's a bit awkward to get a switched fused spur in so can I just join it out and put a 6amp MCB at the board ?

Hi iv just fitted a cooker hob to a newly fitted kitchen, the junction box for the hob and oven was already there and the cooker switch too, in other words it was all there and ready to go it just needed a heat resistant flex for the hob, however when i lifted the panel over the terminals to...
Hello folks.
I have had a complete house rewire last month and all 17th edition certified.
The electrician also wired up the new oven and hob.
My question is this: When I switch on the hob at the wall socket, it also seems to bring power to the oven as the timer starts to flash which is quite...

Hi all.
Great forum, really useful! Just bought an ex rental property which was in a bit of a mess. We're replacing the electric oven and gas hob. No real modifications are being done, but just wanted a sanity check on the wiring for these appliances.
