An easy direct replacement is obtain an MK K011.

Can’t really find the that you mentioned MK K011

You need to replace that whitecable, it's rubber & is breaking down as can be seen by the breaks in it!

Thanks for your reply.

Could you please let me know what sort of cable should I replace this with. I probably need about 1m.

If you could send me a link it would be fabs!

THanks,

you will need to remove the screws from the new one (leaver the washers off) and make use of the origional screws. (different size)

This flex can be ordered by the metre:

It's rated at 35A. The current rating of your cooker/cooker circuit, may need to be checked.

But yes, agree about replacing the white rubber cable being more urgent!
