[QUOTE="Sharpend, post: 509311, member: 17152"] 2.5mm cable will take ~27A iirc so if the oven is only 3Kw ~ 13A then shouldn’t on its own, however you are on a ring so it really is reliant upon what else is connected to ring. You could put it in a fused spur but I’d think that at regular full load it will cause problems for spur. also and probably more importantly he regs advise against >2kw being attached to a multiple used circuit ie it should be on its own circuit. the question I always ask the tech gurus on the scams when they suggest something that isn’t agreeable with the regs is; would you be happy to connect as you’ve suggested? It is usually causes them to revert to the regs. [/QUOTE]
