Change gas hob to an electric one

This would depend on the power consumption of the hob, as a general rule anything over 2Kw should be on its own circuit but read the manufacturers instructions and have a look at how much power is already being drawn on the circuit as these will both have an effect on what needs to be done.

As mentioned by a previous tradesmen, no most likely not, a gas hob can plug in as it only needs electricity to work the ignition ( the clicking part ) An electric hob draws a loads more current, and will need its own 6 or 10mm supply. Depending on wether it’s an induction one or not. If you distribution board is miles away may be a disaster job !

Hi, You can Purchase a 13A Induction Hob with a Moulded Plug fitted so Yes you can use a socket outlet for a hob but only if designed that way. I hope this helps. Best Regards JS Electrical
