Looking to replace a gas cooker with a gas hob and electric cooker underneath.
There is the usual bayonet fitting on the wall and the gas hob above but I
think the regs now require a rigid fixing, unless someone tells me otherwise.
probably not a good idea to install a rubber hose above a cooker anyway, even
if one were available.
Questions a
1) What do the regs of today require ?.
2) What parts are needed ?
3) Can I utilise the bayonet fitting or does that have to be changed ?

All covered in detail in the excellent Gas fitting faq at:
