Like its been said i understand that if it is a fixed appliance (dedicated) eg cooker its 5 seconds and does not need an rcd.
BUT... As it has a socket on it i would class this not as a dedicated circuit then because anything can be pluged into it and thus being 0.4s and rcd.
If its your job or somebody elses your enquireing about change the cooker front to just a switch then your covered under 16th edition.
