Hi,
I have moved kitchens from one room, to the next room in my flat. I have extended the ring to add two double sockets to the new kitchen.
The problem I have is the cooker circuit will need to be replaced or extended.
I have checked the wiring of the cooker, and its on its own RCD at the CU.
Ideally I would like to extend the existing wiring, the cable runs in the loft since I am on the top floor of the flats, put in a junction box, now I cant seem to find any junction boxes over 30amps, are there any? or is that a indication I shouldn't be putting one in?
I plan to have a cooker connection and on the same circuit a socket switch, so I guess I should have a 45amp double pole cooker switch with 13 amp socket with neon and 45A DP Cooker Connection Unit.
All of this to be run on 6mm twin and earth cable, does all the above sound OK?
I am thinkin a whole new circuit to the CU would be the best, but I don't want to do that my self (hooking up a new cable system into the CU i am not entirely sure on) whereas I can do the above my self, but will only do this if it is safe.
I understand this is part P, but I live in scotland and believe this is not applicable, any help much appreciated
