<p>A cooker control plate comprises an insulated front mounting plate on whose rear are three connections for the live, neutral and earth conductors of a supply cable, three connections for the live, neutral and earth of a cooking appliance cable and three further connections for a second cooking appliance cable, of which a live connection is connected through a fuse carrier to the supply cable live conductor connection.. The fuse carrier can accommodate a suitably sized BS1362 fuse, such as 13A, and be accommodated in an aperture on the front of the plate. The plate can be fixed to a dual mounting box by screws. Copper conductors on the rear of the plate can be housed in an insulated enclosure having holes for the entry of cables and a galvanised steel bar can provide earth continuity between the unit and a steel back box. The cooker control plate allows the safe electrical connection of two electrical cooking appliances, such as separate ovens and hobs, requiring protection from different size overcurrent protection devices and fed from one source of electrical energy, such as a 30 amp cooker circuit. The cooker control plate can include two cable clamps to individually secure of two appliance cables which may be from 1.5mm2 to 10mm2.</p> |
