Kitchen wiring help/advice

[teeee91]

Hi all need some advice with my kitchen wiring, so I have 3 2.5mm wires coming out one junction box which is fed by a 6mm cable strait from the consumer unit with a 32amp rcbo one of the sockets also has a fused socket for a 3amp cooker hood, is this OK or will it need to be changed? See photo attached

Assuming if the junction box is rated at the right capacity then yes it's okay.

The circuit was probably for an electric oven.

Doesn't matter it's like a spur from a spur on a ring final, only 1 spur allowed.

OP, remove the junction box cover and send a picture of it.

So if I got rid of the fused socket for the cooker hook that would be ok

Yes or put an FCU before the socket and cooker hood.

 

[pete01]

Nonsense.

Oh sorry I thought only 1 unfused spur allowed

You aren't wrong there.

I know and thats what is in the sketch above the leg from the JB could be overloaded, granted it's only a cooker hood but rules are rules.
