Ovens on cooker ccts

In domestic kitchens, what do you think of the practice of connecting ovens to 32/40A cb cooker ccts via dual cooker connection outlet plates? For example, along with a 6kw hob, a 2.5kw oven is connected via a 1.5mm2 3 core h/r flex? One view is that it's acceptable because the flex can't be overloaded and the cb provides s/c protection for the flex, nor would it be coded on an eicr.

    No tools required, I removed the cover and the fuse carriers with my fingers. 


    Spot the cooker circuit that supplies the 2.8 kW double oven in the kitchen, it's in there if you look carefully. 


     I have actually pulled the perished rubber insulated cable out. 


    A job for the morning.
