Hi currently looking at replacing cooker, thought it would be simple until I saw that many new cookers are 16 amp rated. I am not an electrician so not sure if I can put one of those in.
At the moment our oven is hard wired in to a cooker switch which also incorporates a 13 amp socket this in turn is protected on the mcb with a 32amp breaker.
Thoughts please. I do have the option of getting a 13 amp rated cooker but wife prefers one of the 16 amp rated ones
But you don't use the socket to plug the cooker into, so a 16A cooker will be fine. Most cooker suppliers will connect the new cooker to an existing cooker point for you.
