Just a thought that crossed my mind. Why do we hard-wire cookers,
instead of using plugs and sockets?


Most are on a 32A supply, so an industrial 32A plug and socket could be
behind the neighbouring unit and cookers supplied with a cable and plug
fitted, making installation easy for anyone. Or a pair of them to cover
separate oven and hob.


Extra costs both in materials and labour.

How often to you change your cooker to make this worthwhile?
