Manufacterer's advice/instructions

whjohnson
Been asked to connect up a used rangemaster all-electric cooker. No rating plate but model name is 'classic 90'. It has an induction hob.

Existing cable is 6.00mm on a 32A mcb.

Phoned the manufacturer who said it would be fine, since diversity could be applied but we would have to fit a cooker switch without a built in 13a socket and uprate the mcb to 40A.

I am a little troubled to say the least.

Comments welcome.

    Andy,

    Just been looking again. The model looks to be a different one to that.The closest rating I came up with was 14.74KW.

    Splitting hairs I know, but 6.0mm? Even with a 40A it's running close.to 65A?
