wiring up of an electric cooker
New build property with a designated cooker bay with its own designated
electric cooker socket, with a little vent extraction thing in the ceiling above it, (no gas allowed/supplied in this property), and on the other side of the kitchen is the designated fridge/freezer bay, again with its own electricity socket. Would it be dangerous if I put the fridge freezer in the cooker slot, and the cooker plugged into the standard electric point that the fridge freezer is supposed to go? Only reason i ask is the open plan property i want to put the cooker 2 metres further away from the living area than where they intended it to go. cheers, sonny. |

wiring up of an electric cooker
A few tough questions, need to do my homework on that.
If its any help, both appliances are linked to the trip switch fuse box in the hall (named on the trip switches) and its a new build propeerty built to a high safety spec, they have a tiny little ventilator thing in the ceiling just a little plastic trim on show, about 4 by 4 (inch). The ceiling is horizontal but theres someone in the flat above so i dont know where the vent goes from there, sideways out of the wall, who knows.. havent moved in yet. sonny "Mark Thorson" > wrote in message ... > stepson wrote: >> >> New build property with a designated cooker bay with its own designated >> electric cooker socket, with a little vent extraction thing in the >> ceiling >> above it, (no gas allowed/supplied in this property), and on the other >> side >> of the kitchen is the designated fridge/freezer bay, again with its own >> electricity socket. > > Is non-bay connection cooker/refrigerator non-grounded > connection point?

I don't know where you are, but around here the fridge and the stove run on different voltage. Fridges plug into a 120V outlet but stoves run on 220 V. If it is a rental property you had best check with the management about running a 220 line. I doubt they will go for it. |

Since the electric cooktop plug-in is probably a 240v, it will be mighty exciting to see the refrigerator compressor go POOF. And you amy have some real trouble trying to run the range on 120v. -- Dave www.davebbq.com |

wiring up of an electric cooker
I could plug the fridge freezer into a normal socket tho, but would a cooker
be ok to work on a normal electric socket too, (I've been to the property today and there is a faceplate where the cooker electric point should be wired in to but no electric faceplate anywhere else so i'm assuming thats the only place i can wire the cooker upto. (paying an electrician to do it by the looks of it).

Then make wiring choices. Then purchase said cooker. Don't plug cooker and fridge into same circuit...that way you won't blow fuses and ruin stuff in an unpowered fridge. |

This "stepson" guy is posting from the UK, right...??? If that's the case, it's doubtful there is any 120V stuff "in the picture"... -- Best Greg |
