Default COoker point cable size?

I'm fairly sure that when this house was rewired that the cable

recent discussion here has discussed 10mm and even 16mm.

Has the standard changed over the years?


The cable size depends on the cooker kW or current rating, the cicuit
length and the installation conditions e.g under insulation or clipped
direct.
