advice for fitting new electric oven

[steunited]

Hi all we are looking at replacing our 14 year old zanussi single oven which is only 2.15 kw.
Some of the ovens we have looked at are rated over 3kw so need to be 16amp.
Is it possible to tell if our wiring will be able to cope with an oven over 3kw just by looking when i pull the old oven out.
Also what work would be required to enable a 3kw oven to be fitted.
thanks

Look, check the side of the Oven, there is an information there, you will see the voltage Ratings and the wattage. You have to use the Amps on the Oven to select the circuit breaker

Think he'll have fitted it and cooked several dinners with it by now
