EmmaS,
As Blakey says. the cable size is dependant on the current rating of the protective device which is calculated by dividing the output of your cooker by the supply voltage then diversity can be applied. If a socket is on the cooker isolator that will also have an effect on the calculation.
But normally falls in to the 6mm or 10mm CSA.
Sometimes the size can be seen on the PVC sheath of the cable an electrician will know by sight but you can buy a tool to measure CSA.
