Hi, On Site Guide gone walkabout, so checking here.

Swapping out knackered gas oven for an electric one ( and maybe
the hob in the future for an induction one)

Checking the old disused cable that I presume fed a cooker at some
point is suitable. Checking the diversity calc.

IIRC it is 10A + 30% of the remaining load? Presume that is a oven
and hob combined, not separately?

Thanks

plus 5A if there is a socket on the cooker point.

Yup.

So for example a 2.2kW oven + 6kW hob, gives total peek of 8.2kW, or a
max current of 35.7A

Take 10 + 0.3 x 25.7 = 17.7A diverse loading.

A lot of induction multi-ring hobs have an engineer menu where you can set the maximum current draw.

Thanks John,

No sure why I didn't think to check the wiki
