Electric cooker installation: questions and answers

Does an existing cooker cable guarantee compatibility with a new cooker?

No. The appliance demand, cable, protection and connection arrangement must be checked before the new cooker is connected.

Can a new cooker use the old cooker's connection?

Only if the supply and connection remain suitable for the new appliance. The rating and manufacturer instructions need checking first.

What affects the quotation for electric cooker installation?

Circuit suitability, the equipment specification and any additional wiring or controls affect the work required. A quotation should confirm the agreed investigation, repair and testing before work is arranged.
