Are you a home cook who enjoys the convenience of gas cooktops but requires an oven for baking? Discover a dual fuel range cooker that has the best of both worlds.
Gas cooktops are the preferred choice of many home chefs with expertise in the kitchen due to their superior temperature control. They also permit them to use advanced cooking techniques, such as charcoaling. These stoves are expensive, particularly if you require an additional gas connection and electrician for installation.
What is a 13amp plug?
If you have a dual-fuel range cooker (also known as a gas and electric oven) you'll need an electrical outlet of 13 amps. The plug also needs to be wired hard into the cooker circuit ring by a qualified electrician.
This ensures that the current passing through the plug is secure and not excessive, which could result in an electrical fire risk. The plug has a fuse that controls the current. The fuse will blow as soon as it is deemed to be overloaded. This safeguards the appliance from an overload of electricity.
The fuse is classified at 13 amps, as shown on the top of the plug and this indicates the maximum current that the plug is able to pass without causing damage to the appliance or overheating the socket. When replacing fuses, it's important to use the same amperage rating as the original. If you replace the fuse with one of a different rating, then you are at risk of overheating the socket and possibly putting you and others at danger.
Ceramic 13 amp fuse are extremely durable and can withstand high temperatures generated by an oven. Ceramic is also fire-proof, making it a better choice over other types of fuse.
There are several ways to install an 13 amp plug. The plug can be connected to a live socket with a screw or plastic jaw cord clamp. The plug should be pushed firmly into place and tightened, making sure the cord clamp is secure.
Before connecting the wires you may need to remove the wiring diagram on cardboard that is placed over the pins of certain plugs. The wires need to be cut to the right length, as if they are too long they may be crushed when the plug covers are replaced. The earth wire should be the longest to ensure it is connected before the neutral and line pins.
How do I install the 13amp plug?
The vast majority of dual cookers that use fuel in the UK are powered by a 13 amp plug. This is crucial because ovens can draw large amounts of current, while normal plug sockets have a rating of 10 amps.
In general new appliances must have a plug installed at the point of sale. This is in order to be in compliance with the Plugs and Sockets etc. (Safety Regulations) 1994. However, older appliances may not have a plug and this is the reason why the problem occurs.
The first step to take when connecting a cooker with an existing plug socket is to ensure that the fuse rating of the fuse box is similar to the rating of the plug. This is very important because a fuse that is not properly sized could pose a risk.
It is also recommended to ensure that the fuse is fully seated into the cartridge, and there isn't any movement. The next step is to prepare the flex to be used. Remove the sheathing to expose the three insulated conductors. Utilize a utility knife to nick the sheathing just beyond the grip on the cord at the entry point of the plug. The blade will not be able to penetrate the insulated conductors. The nick should be large enough to allow the cable and sheathing to separate when the sheathing is pulled back. Cut off the excess sheathing leaving about 40mm beyond the flex.
The flex is placed over the plug, with the earth terminal on top and the live and neutral terminals at the bottom. The sheathing on each pin is removed using conductors in the colour of the wire as a guide. The internal cable is then fixed to the terminal with the help of the cord grip. If the plug is equipped with a cord clamp that is screw-type, unwind it and then pull the insulation back to expose the copper wires. Then, connect each conductor that is insulated to the proper terminal (starting with the earth, then neutral and finally the live) by using the channel they run through in the plug.
What is the maximum draw of a 13 amp plug?
The maximum power draw of a 13amp plug is 3kw at 230volts. This is a large amount of power, however the standard fuse on a UK plugtop won't fail until the cable reaches a hazardous temperature. A damaged plug or socket could cause fire, therefore it is important to keep an eye on how much you are using, especially in the kitchen.
The ceramic fuses used in plugtops are approximately 25mm and are rated for 240V mains. The fuses will bear an BS Kitemark or a similar mark on their side, and they'll also contain sand. There are cheaper glass or plastic alternatives, however they shouldn't be used with a live plug or else you could cause a fire and Duel Fuel Ovens get electrocuted!
The majority of dual fuel mini range cooker fuel range cookers in the UK require hard-wired and will not plug directly into an outlet on the wall. They are typically connected to a dedicated cooker ring circuit that is suitable for appliances that use up to 20 amps.
Examine the ring circuit in your home using the fuse box, or contact a local electrician. You can ask them if the sockets are connected to the same ring, or if they are separate. They should also be able to inform you if there's an individual circuit that powers your oven.

What is the maximum current draw of a cooker switch?
There is a lot of confusion regarding the maximum current draw for a cooker switch. Most cookers are hard-wired, and connected to an oven-ring circuit not an ordinary socket. This is due to the fact that they usually consume more than 20 amps when both the gas hob and electric oven are used.
Therefore, you cannot find a dual fuel range cooker that could be connected to a standard socket because this could create a significant fire risk and be against electrical safety regulations. A licensed electrician will install any new electrics to the kitchen cooker and will make sure that the load (both the oven and the hob) do not exceed the capacity of supply of that circuit.
Dual fuel range cookers combine the flexibility of a gas stove and the precision and precision of an electric oven. They are therefore a favorite among both chefs and home cooks. If you are looking to experiment with various cooking techniques like searing and charring, a dual fuel range cooker is the ideal choice.
When you are looking to purchase a new range cooker, you'll need to take into consideration several factors like size, function and cost. Additionally, you'll also need to make sure that your house has a suitable gas hook-up for the appliance.
