Hi, ive fitted a cooker before but previously it was a complete unit so
just
had one wire from the back to affix to wall. This time we have a separate
hob/oven to fit and as such will have two wires, is it acceptable to
connect
the two wires to the one wall box? if not what is the correct way to go
about it.. cheers

If your cooker outlet is the type with a socket use that for the oven via a
13A plug. Wire the hob direct using 6mm cable. If it's the newer type with a
switch above the unit and an outlet below you could use the outlet to supply
an additional socket for the oven to plug into (total loading is unlikely to
be as high as the old combined cooker - 6.5 + 2.5 =9kw , combined ones were
in the order of 11kw)
