Is it ok to wire a plug on a 3kw cooker?

[kpmatthews]

Hi

I’ve searched for the answer and seen contradictory responses.

We have a second hand smeg suk61mfx dual fuel with single oven. It has h05rr-f cable on the back which looks pretty meaty for a standard plug.

Label on the utensil tray indicates 3kw.

We have a separate circuit for the oven with plug socket behind the cooker and red isolation switch on the wall.

Can I plug, or should I swap socket for a connection box?

Thanks, Kris
