    Hi Eric,

    As of a few days ago Part P came into effect in England & Wales which means that, should you require more then a simple connection to an existing point (we think, awaiting confirmation from the NICEIC :roll:) then you will need an approved electrician that can comply with the legislation now in force. Think on it like CORGI for electricians.

    How much you’ll pay I have no idea but I’d be very interested, as would others, to hear what quotes you get.

    first person i called quoted me £130+vat and maybe more. The second, more local to me, quoted £24ph plus vat, that’s with me helping the guy lift the oven in and take the old one out.

    Ezman,

    Have you an existing 60amp Cookerbox on the wall or are you looking for an electrician to provide a supply from your Consumer Unit?

    now you’ve got me thinking….. 😕
    i just moved into this house… there is no cookerbox from what i can see….the existing oven is electric, i think it may just be connected to the consumer unit.
