fitting an oven

[chris99uk]

hi,

i am trying to replace a single oven which has been wired in with an oven that comes with a 13amp pulg - can i just cut the plug off and wire in or should i add a socket from the junction and plug in?

any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks.

is your new oven gas?
if its the same power you should be ok
the maximum wattage a plug can supply is 2990watts i take it the oven is under this?
