I’m changing my kitchen. I have a a gas hob.
I’m getting an induction hob instead. They have many advantages over gas, same control, no fumes, cleaner, safer, less heat generated in the kitchen.
The kitchen is already supplied with an electricity outlet for the electric cooker. This has its own circuit.
I’m wondering can I use this circuit to also power my induction Hob ?
I have a consumer unit from 1987, with trip switches. How do I find out what rating in amps the trip switch for the cooker is. It’s a red trip switch, does it work on colour coding ? All the other trip switches are also red I think. Is it possible to change the trip switch to handle higher amps
There is no RCD on this circuit, does there need to be if there is a HOB ?
The circuit will need to be able to handle perhaps 40 amps when the cooker and hobs are on at the same time.
