On the subject of which.... I've a cooker rated 2.8kW. I can't see any good reason not to
extend the radial cct from the cooker switch to a 13A socket and put a 13A plug on a suitable
flex to the cooker (all run in 6mm^2 and protected at the CU witha 32A mCB). Makes maintenance
easy since the cooker just unplugs and introduces discrimination since I can put a 10A fuse in
the plug. Any disadvantages or reasons *not* to do this?
