5.7kw Hob

[ukpita]

Quick question... Electric hob is 5.7kW so could I use 2.5mm heat resistant flex? B+Q has Tower 2.5mm Heat Resistant flex and says that is max rating is 240v, 6000Wats and 25 Amps.... so i think this would be ok?

Just wondering as 4mm is mentioned as the standard however 4mm would be a little difficult to run/connect?? Guess im just looking for a second opinion.

But the circuit details i mentioned was just an example.
