QUOTE(EneriW @ Sep 5 2017, 12:32 PM) I realised some hobs uses 15amp whereas some 13amp (lower range hobs). If I asked my electrician to wire a 15amp switch now and then decides to use a hob that uses 13amp, is it ok? From what I know, 15amp uses round pin and 13amp is normal pin. Also, I read somewhere that we can ask the electrician to connect the switch (which is usually below the table top) to another switch on the wall above the table top (something like a water heater switch) so that it is easier for us to switch on/off the hob. Is it feasible? How much is the wiring cost for such method (concealed wiring)? Use 40A switch on top the table but away from the hob. Than wire down to the hob. No need 15A or 13A socket. High or low power hob also can use. |

QUOTE(idoblu @ Sep 7 2017, 09:27 PM) I took a look at mine today, yes mine is a 45 amp double pole switch Forgot I had so much problem finding this switch Now I only that 45A switch normally is called "Cooker Switch" in western country. It design for switching electric hot plate hob. You know those hob use very high consumption and high current. Since many here start to use induction hob, but many still don't know use such switch. |

QUOTE(advocado @ Sep 10 2017, 12:32 PM) hi, do hobs use power plugs or they only provide the wires you need to connect? if you use a switch, means you can only use it for the hobs and nothing else? is there such a thing as 40-45A socket? so if you decide to use portable hoobs you can still use the same socket? and what cable rating should you be using for the 40-45A socket/switch? High watt hobs don't use plug. Require to direct join screw in. The switch is only mean for 1 item use. You can't share with others high watt thing. It only come in 45A switch. That switch don't have 3pin plug socket. It mean for direct join to the hob. At least 4mm wire. When buy kitchen electrical appliances or any appliances, always check the wattage. When you ask some question here, tell the item wattage usage. People can tell you more detail the answer. Rather a general. |
