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.

    RCCB would not provide protection against overcurrent due to a fault between live conductors (L-N for example). RCCB's may be used for fault protection (L-E faults) of course.


     




    You know that is not what I meant.


    The MIs  you said specifically called for a 25A MCB or RCBO therefore they are not correct.
