Hi
Our oven stopped working suddenly including the clock. It was on the fan oven setting at about 150 degrees. I checked the fuse board - it had not tripped. A little bit later when I used one of the gas hobs (the gas hobs have an automatic igniter) the oven came back to life ie clock came back...
Hi I need advice. I am about to buy a new oven. I am moving into a new home. The original owner removed their 90cm flush range oven when they moved out.
I didn't think anything about this until PC World told me that their engineers will not install an oven unless there is a 10mm space between...
Hi there
My old oven broke just in time for xmas😭😭😭 (murphys law)
Ive picked up a new one which is rated at 16amp.
The old oven came off an independent circuit. 20amp breaker with 6mm from board to isolator and 6mm to rear of oven.
Is this just a case of just hardwiring it in or is it a bigger...
Hi all
Some advice on this would be great.
Due to wire a kitchen from scratch and in a pickle over the designing of the oven and hob circuits due to having to carry out first fix before appliances are agreed on due to time restraints.
My original thought was to run a 6mm cable on a 32amp...

Afternoon all. Apologies if this is a stupid question. I'm currently half part way through completing 2391 (second exam tonight) - so may be getting myself in a tiz overthinking things.
Either way, thought I'd put it out to the group.
Task is: Straight swap of existing x5 ovens with new -...

Can any oven be hard wired if we choose to do that?

Hi,
I am trying to figure out if my defy dgs906 gas/electric oven is single or 3 phase. The manual says it can be either or but the L1, L2 and L3 are not bridged so I assume its 3 phase.
I am not doing the wiring but need to pull the correct cable before the electrician comes to install as I...
This is a strange one and before I contact the company who installed my new oven I wanted to ask for some advice. Ever since I had a new oven installed my electric hob has been considerably hotter than it was before, even on the lowest setting food burns very quickly whereas it never did before...
