[QUOTE="The_Fromage, post: 478302, member: 31208"] Thanks for your help gents. The hob is rated as 5.5K-6.6Kw. Am I right in thinking I could potentially take out the plug and cable from the 2nd hand hob I've been given and an electrician would be able to connect it to the mains cabling the previous hob used? Also, with the plug having all the 5 wires going into it (presumably the two live wires going to 1 live pin and same for neutral), is that actually dangerous or just ill-advised? [/QUOTE]
