Re: Replacing 3 Phase Cooker With Induction hob

Its hard to say without seeing this type of thing, but you won't get away with a single RCBO as it may have to take 12.4kw = 51 amps. Better off having 2 circuit's at 26.6 amp & 23.3 amp. I was suggesting using 3 x RCBO's in place of the existing 3 pole mcb, creating 3 single phase circuits, (i...

Re: Replacing 3 Phase Cooker With Induction hob

[quote="collectors"]I am 99% sure you will need a separate supply for the oven. You would need to post more info from the spec tags on each unit. IE: wattage. Would also need to know the size of cable there at the moment. 20amp is only the switch size/capacity. If its only fed by 2.5mm 3 p...

Usually, the size needed is calle...

Re: Replacing 3 Phase Cooker With Induction hob

Property had 3 phase installed to run workshop machinery. It appears that the previous owner simply took advantage of the 3 phase supply on the other side of the kitchen wall and installed a professional cooker for his wife's cake baking hobby.

Hi everybody - some advice needed I've removed a faulty 3 phase cooker. The supply is via a 3 pole 20A breaker, the neutral is unswitched. I want to replace it with an induction hob that can be wired for 2 or 3 phases, and a single phase oven. The combined draw is about the same as the old cooker. I...
