My double electric oven is 40A, IDK what the electric cooktop
is, but probably 30A? AC breaker is 50A, probably only pulls
half that when it up and running. Hot tub is on a 40A.
Electric dryer is 30A.

My cooktop is on a 30A breaker. I have measured the current (clamp meter
at the panel), and it is a little over 30A with all elements on high,
although that it unlikely to happen in normal use.


Same here, but with the oven and grill and 4 hobs.


He is just talking about a unit with the "hobs". The oven would be
separate.


Must be bigger hobs than me, or more than 4 then.
