Top tips
Hiring a electrician, without the regret.
Four moves that separate a smooth job from a nightmare.
Undersized Cabling
Using a 4mm cable for a high-power range cooker that requires 6mm or 10mm, leading to tripped breakers or melted wires.
Inaccessible Isolator
Installing the safety switch behind the cooker or inside a cupboard where it cannot be reached quickly in an emergency.
Incorrect Fuse Rating
Fitting a 32A breaker for an appliance that requires a 45A supply, causing frequent power cuts during Sunday roasts.
Poor Levelling
A cooker that isn't perfectly level will cause oil to pool on one side of the pan, leading to uneven cooking and potential safety risks.
