Whats the ccc of the 1.5 mm flex????

 

[telectrix]

an alternative would be to replace the Cooker outlet with 2 single sockets and fit plugs to the flexes.

roughly 14a, oven is 0.91Kwh which I work out at just under 4a

that is a option but if its safe to connect them back to the ccu it would save me a lot of hassle

 

[telectrix]

it's safe because the flexes can't be overloaded, as the appliances are fixed (max.) loads. the 32A MCB in the CU will protect against short circuit current (scc). the ends of the flexes should be ferruled to ensure good connection into the cooker outlet plate.
