What do I need in place to have electric cooker installed

Anonymous user 03/03/2024 - 2.44 PM

Previously had a gas cooker but have been bought a new electric cooker. I have 2 boxes on the wall for electric cooker, one with the switch, but no wires or cables hanging down. Would I need anything else ?

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

All you need is a short section of heat resistant cable (HORN would be ideal) to connect between the wall outlet plate and the back of the cooker. Most electricians would supply a suitable cable as part of connecting the cooker up and testing that its properly earthed etc.
