Default Replacing ceramic hob

FIL's old ceramic hob is cracked, and he has bought a new one. Well, he
bought it 9 months ago, but only needs it fitting now.
Does Prat P allow for DIY replacement of like-for-like, even in kitchens?
The old hob looks like it was wired with 6mm2. The new (and old) hob says
7.1kW(max), which is ok for 6mm stuff, but it would appear to go via a 20A
fuse in the fuse box.
From my (limited) experience with those cooker switches, they are quite
heavy to operate, but the switch that he has is really quite smooth. Could
it be an inappropriate switch is already there, or are some smoother in
operation than others?
Ta.
