It all depends. Do you know what rating your old cooker was (in kW), plus the size of the cable supplying the outlet and the size of the fuse/mcb for that circuit??

Your new oven will draw 10A and the hob 14A (allowing for diversity) - hence 24A in total, so your cable will need to be 4mm minimum on a 32A mcb.

If your old cooker was supplied off the kitchen circuit/ring, you cannot connect your two new appliances to this. The oven could be connected on its own, but NOT the hob, it's too big - a new supply cable would be required

Connect the hob to the cooker point and fit the oven with a standard plug and 13A fuse.
