Socket too close to the 'hot zone'? Ask questions and find answers to many subjects relating to electrics and electrical work

Hi guys

We need a new replacement gas cooker and were thinking of AO. Looking at their installation guidelines the socket on the left is too close to their 'hot zone'.

We've had the cooker serviced before with no problems and no mention made of this - any advice please?

Thanks for the help.

I worked for a company fitting cookers for a short time, the electric cookers we tended to use common sense, the gas cookers followed the rule book to the letter.

For gas 1/2 inch to close, and it was sorry can't fit that.
