We currently have an old gas oven that is on the blink. Her indoors

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.


Of course it doesn't, you are thinking of a full cooker.
Ovens can be very low rating and many come with a 13amp plug on.


Don't you have an electric cooker point?




This will be a double oven or oven and grill.
