About this deal

As with build-in cookers, build under cookers do not feature an integrated hobs. In most cases a separate gas or electric hob unit is installed above the built under oven to give the appearance that they are a single unit when in fact they are not.

I would at 45A be considering moulded breakers rather than an MCB, clearly not an option in domestic Eaton on their spec do list both 40 and 45 amp MCB’s for showers. Hager state 6A ~ 63A MCB and 6A ~ 50A RCBO but there is a scale of values for the rated diversity factor and adjacent circuit breakers with a 10 way board this can be 0.5 however I would not expect a shower to be used for more than ½ an hour.

What Type of Switch, Cable and Fuse/MCB is Needed for a Cooker?

Knowing the right fuse to use for our electric shower is something that most of us just overlook. Most of us only focus on choosing the right shower that fits our needs without even minding the proper fuse. Getting the wrong fuse for your electric shower could lead to major problems leaving you frustrated. Here are two tips in choosing the right fuse for your electric shower: The height requirements are normally to allow for a cupboard or set of pan drawers to be installed beneath it. Our old shower is a Mira 8.78 advance ATL (I'd assume 8.78kw but the label doesn't actually say). We're looking for a new replacement electric shower and hope to replace it with a 9kw as we don't want the hassle (and extra cost) of fitting a 10mm cable. (This one we think http://www.plumbworld.co.uk/9kw-white-chrome-3298-16348.)

For FK sake stop pratting about and do what you know needs to be done and get a modern CU fitted by a competent spark. In the case of our supply cable, it was fairly old so was still using the old style wire colours as opposed to the new. This is fine as long as it’s been tested and confirmed to still be fit for purpose. For this reason, if this is a new installation e.g. you’re not connecting into an existing cooker supply, it counts as installing a new circuit and is forbidden by anyone other than a Part P qualified electrician. Please see our project on part P if you do not understand this. If you’re working with a freestanding cooker, then this can in most cases simply be gently pulled forwards until it is free of the recess it’s sitting in.With everything now out of the way it’s a great idea to have a good clean up. Things can get pretty dirty behind cookers as they are rarely moved. This means turning the power off at both the cooker control unit and also isolating the circuit directly in the consumer unit or fuse box e.g. turning off the MCB or pulling out the fuse.
