[QUOTE="mihcis, post: 382532, member: 25595"] Sorry for the newbie question. Would be grateful for some help in hardwiring a cooker, Zanussi ZCV621MW with a double oven. The back terminal board looks like this: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/CGdc7RQ.jpg[/IMG] And the mains connection in the box looks like this: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/e3LMRyr.jpg[/IMG] The manual recommends the cable of 6mm2 and provides a scheme like this: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/awKl6U5.jpg[/IMG] I am total newbie in this, so not even sure what kind of cable do I need. Is it Twin & Earth and do I need to then need to split Live into two and Neutral into three as shown? I am also guessing I need to replace the mains box for a proper junction box, otherwise the cable can't come out nicely? I realize it would be better to get an electrician to do it, but I got quoted £40 by two guys each for a few minute job because they charge for at least 1 hour when called out. And since I am on a tight budget, I am set to do it myself. Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
