We currently have an old gas oven that is on the blink. Her indoors
wants an electric one to replace it.

My question is can I just plug an electric oven into a normal electric
socket or would I need an electrician fit it?


No it has to be wired direct to a 6mm TW&E outlet.

Don't you have an electric cooker point?

No not that I know of. The oven is in a kitchen extension and I assume
since they were going to install a gas oven they didn't bother putting one
in.


The current gas oven is plugged into a normal double socket.
