Dual Fuel Range Cooker With 13amp Plug

Are you a cook at home who appreciates the nimble cooking control of gas cooktops, but requires an electric oven for baking? Find a dual-fuel range cooker that offers the best of both worlds.

Many home chefs with experience prefer gas cooktops due to their superior temperature control and ability to employ sophisticated cooking techniques, such as grilling. These powerhouse stoves can be expensive, particularly in the event that you require an additional gas connection and electrician to install it.

What is a 13amp plug?

If you have a dual fuel range cooker (also known as a gas and electric oven) then you'll require an appropriate 13 amp plug. The plug will also have to be wired in the cooker ring circuit by a fully certified electrician.

This ensures that the current flowing through the plug is secure and not too high which could cause an electrical fire danger. The plug has a fuse that controls the current. The fuse will blow as soon as it is overloaded. This protects the appliance against an overload of electricity.

The fuse is rated at 13 amps, which is shown on top of the plug. This indicates the maximum amount of current that the plug could pass without damaging the appliance or heating the socket. When replacing fuses, it's crucial to select the same amperage rating that was used in the original. If you replace the fuse using one with an alternative rating, you risk overheating the socket and possibly putting you and others at serious risk.

A 13 amp fuse is likely to be a ceramic one that is extremely robust and able to withstand the high temperatures produced by a range cooker. Ceramic elements are also fire-resistant and therefore a better choice than other types.

There are a variety of ways to install an 13 amp plug. It could be wired to an existing live socket and the flex then connected to this by either a screw or a jaw type cord clamp. The plug is then put in place with a firm push and then tightened, ensuring that the cord clamp is secure.

Before connecting the wires, you might need to take off the wiring diagram printed on cardboard that is positioned on top of the pins on some plugs. The wires must be trimmed to the right length, because if they are too long they may be crushed when the plug covers are replaced. The earth wire should be the longest wire to ensure it is connected before the line and neutral pins.

How do I install the 13amp plug?

The majority of dual fuel range cookers sold in UK are powered by a 13 amp plug. This is vital because ovens draw a significant current, and the standard plug sockets have a 10-amp rating.

Generally speaking new appliances should be equipped with plugs at the time of sale. This is part of ensuring compliance with the Plugs and Sockets etc (Safety) Regulations 1994. However, older appliances might not be connected to an outlet and that is the reason why the problem occurs.

When connecting the cooker to an existing plug socket the first thing to do is to check that the rating of the fuse in the fuse box matches the plug's rating. This is vital because a faulty fuse could be dangerous.

It is also recommended that the fuse has been fully seated into the cartridge, and that there isn't any movement. The next step is to prepare the flex that will be used. The first step is to remove the sheathing from the flex in order to expose the three conductors that are insulated within. Then, nick the sheathing at the entry point to the plug (beyond the cord grip) with a utility knife, without piercing the individual conductors that are insulated. This nick should be wide enough that the sheathing can split and enlarge the nick when it is pulled back revealing the cable underneath. Finally cut off the excess sheathing, leaving about 40mm over the flex end.

This flex should be placed over the plug with the earth terminal on the top and the neutral and live terminals on the bottom. Using the conductors with the colors to guide you, the sheathing is then removed from each pin and the internal cable is then plugged into the appropriate terminal using the cord grip. If the plug has an attached cord clamp that is screw-type, let it loosen and Duel Fuel Cookers then pull the insulation back to expose the copper wires. Finally, connect each conductor that is insulated to the appropriate terminal (starting with the earth first, 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 current draw for a 13amp plug at 300 volts is 3kw. This is a large amount of power but the standard fuse in a UK plugtop won't fail until the cable reaches a dangerous temperature. A faulty plug or socket can cause a fire so it's important to keep an eye on the amount of power you use, especially in the kitchen.

The fuse inside the plugtops are made of ceramic, about 25mm long and rated for 240V mains. They'll feature an BS kitemark or similar marking on the side and contain sand. There are glass or plastic alternatives, but they should never be used with a live plug, except if you don't want to blow the fuse and potentially get electrocuted!

In the UK the majority of dual fuel range cookers are hardwired. They are not able to be plugged directly into an outlet on the wall. They are typically connected through a dedicated cooker circuit, which is only suitable for appliances that can handle up to 20 amps.

This is because they typically consume more than 20 amps when both the electric and gas hob oven are used.

You will not find dual fuel range cookers that are able to be fitted in a standard socket, because this could create an enormous fire risk and violate electrical regulations. A licensed electrician should install new electrics in the kitchen, connecting them to the cooker. They will also make sure that the total load of the oven and the hob does not exceed the circuit's capacity.
