Oven & Cooker Hardwire Installation

Hardwired electric ovens, hobs and range cookers. Quick — usually done in an hour. Includes dedicated cooker circuit upgrade if your supply needs it.

From £85 single-oven hardwire (existing circuit). Full new dedicated 32A circuit £200-£280. Same-day install most jobs.

What's in an oven hardwire

Most domestic electric ovens, hobs and range cookers are hardwired into a dedicated cooker circuit — usually a 6mm² cable on a 32A breaker, with a cooker switch / outlet plate behind or beside the appliance. We:

  • Check the existing cooker circuit can handle your new appliance (check the load on the rating plate)
  • Connect the new oven / hob via a properly-rated cooker outlet plate or dedicated terminal
  • Test the connection live for current draw and earth continuity
  • Issue a NAPIT MEIWC for the work

If your existing circuit is too small (often a problem when going from gas to electric, or upgrading to a larger range with induction hob), we quote a new dedicated 32A circuit run from the consumer unit. Most kitchens take half a day for the full upgrade.

Single-oven straight swaps with the existing circuit and outlet in place: usually £85 fixed price, completed in an hour.

Oven / Cooker Install questions

Single-oven swap on existing circuit: £85. Hob swap on existing: £85. Combined oven + hob from existing single circuit: £110-£140. New dedicated 32A circuit (running cable from consumer unit): £200-£280 depending on length and access.

Some compact ovens (under 13A draw) come on a 13A plug and go straight into a socket. Most full-size electric ovens, hobs and range cookers exceed 13A and must be hardwired into a dedicated circuit.

A like-for-like oven swap on an existing dedicated circuit is generally not notifiable — we still issue a MEIWC. A new dedicated cooker circuit run from the consumer unit IS notifiable, and we self-certify under NAPIT.

Single-oven straight swap: 30-60 minutes. New dedicated circuit: 2-3 hours depending on cable run.

Only briefly — we isolate the cooker circuit at the consumer unit, not the whole kitchen. Fridge, lighting, sockets stay on.

No — you buy the oven from your retailer of choice. We connect it. Saves you paying tradesman markup on appliances.
