Are you a home cook who appreciates the responsiveness of gas cooktops, but needs an oven to bake in? Discover a dual fuel range cooker that offers the best of both worlds.
Gas cooktops are the preferred choice of many home chefs with experience in the kitchen because of their superior temperature control. They also allow them to use advanced cooking techniques such as charring. These powerful stoves are costly particularly if they need an extra gas connection and an electrician to install them.
What is a 13amp plug?
If you have a dual-duel fuel cooker range cooker (also called a gas and an electric oven), you will need an electrical outlet of 13 amps. The plug should be wired by a licensed electrician into the cooker ring.
This assures that the current that flows through the plug is safe and not too high which could cause an electrical fire danger. The plug has an electrical fuse that regulates the current. The fuse will blow when it is deemed to be overloaded. This protects the appliance from overloads of electricity.
The fuse is rated at 13 amps, as shown on top of the plug. This is the maximum amount of current that the plug can pass without damaging the appliance or heating the socket. It is crucial to ensure that when replacing fuses, you always use the same rated amperage as the original. There is a risk of overheating a socket when you replace a fuse with an unrelated rating.
A 13 amp fuse is likely to be a ceramic one, which is very durable and is able to withstand high temperatures generated by a range cooker. Ceramic is also fire-proof, making it a more suitable choice than other kinds of fuse.
There are many ways to install the 13 amp plug. The plug can be connected to a live socket by using screws or a plastic jaw cord clamp. The plug must be pushed firmly into place and tightened, making sure that the cord clamp is secure.
Some plugs may include a wiring diagram on cardboard over the pins. These must be removed prior to connecting the wires. The wires should be cut to the proper length, as if they are too long they can get crushed when plug covers are changed. The earth wire should be the longest in order to connect it prior to the line and neutral pins.
How do I install the 13amp plug?
The vast majority of dual cookers that use fuel in the UK are wired with an amp rating of 13 amps. This is important since ovens draw significant current, and the standard plug sockets have a 10 amp rating.
In general new appliances should include a plug at the point-of-sale. This is to ensure compliance with the Plugs and Sockets etc. (Safety Regulations) 1994. However, older appliances may not be connected to the plug, and this is where the problem arises.
The first thing to consider when connecting a cooker with an existing plug socket is to make sure that the rating of the fuse in the fuse box is in line with that of the plug. This is vital since a faulty sized fuse could pose a risk.
It is also recommended to ensure that the fuse has been completely seated into the cartridge, and that there isn't any excessive movement. Next up is to prepare the flex that is to be used. Remove the sheathing to expose the three conductors that are insulated. Next nick the sheathing at the point of entry to the plug (beyond the cord grip) with a utility knife without penetrating the individual conductors. This nick must be large enough to allow for the cable and sheathing to separate when the sheathing is pulled back. Finally, cut off the excess sheathing and leave about 40mm over the flexing end.
The flex is placed over the plug, with the earth terminal on top and the neutral and live terminals at the bottom. Using the conductors with the colors to guide you, the sheathing is then removed from each pin, and the internal cable is fixed to the correct terminal using the cord grip. If the plug has an attached cord clamp that is screw-type, loosen it and then pull the insulation back to reveal the copper wires. Then, connect each of the conductors insulated to the correct terminal (starting with the earth first, then neutral and finally the live) using the channel that they run through in the plug.
What is the maximum draw of a 13amp plug?
The maximum power draw of an 13amp plug is 3kw at 230volts. This is a lot of power, but the standard fuse in the UK plugtop won't fail until the cable is at a risky temperature. It is crucial to be aware of the amount of electricity you use in your kitchen, as a faulty plug or socket can lead to an explosion.
The ceramic fuses used in plugtops weigh around 25mm and are suitable for mains voltage of 240V. They will feature the BS kitemark or similar mark on the side and will contain sand. Glass or plastic alternatives are available, but should not be used in conjunction with a live plug.
In the UK, most dual fuel range cookers are hardwired. They are not able to plug directly into a wall outlet. They are typically connected through a separate cooker circuit which is suitable only for appliances using up to 20 amps.
You can verify the ring circuit in your home by checking the fuse box or asking an electrician nearby. Ask them if the sockets are on the same ring or if they are distinct. They should also be able to inform you if there is a separate circuit to power your oven.

What is the maximum current draw of a cooker switch?
There is a lot confusion regarding the maximum current draw for the cooker switch. The majority of cookers are hard-wired and connected to a specific oven-ring circuit and not a standard socket. This is because they typically consume more than 20 amps of power when both the gas hob and electric oven are used.
Therefore, you will not find a dual fuel range cooker that could be fitted to a standard socket because this could create a serious fire risk and would be in violation of electrical regulations. A licensed electrician must always install new electrics in the kitchen, connecting them to the cooker. They should also ensure that the total load of the oven and the hob does not exceed the circuit's power supply capacity.
The benefits of a dual fuel range cooker are the responsive cooking power of a gas stove along with the precision of an electric oven. This is why they are popular among cooks and chefs alike. If you are looking to experiment with different cooking techniques, such as searing and charring, a dual fuel range cooker is the best choice.
When you are looking to purchase a new range cooktop, you must take into consideration a variety of factors such as size, function and cost. You will also require an electrical connection to your home to connect the appliance. If you're unsure you're not sure, it's recommended to get an Gas Safe engineer inspect your property prior to installation.
