A cooker circuit installation needs a dedicated electrical supply from your fusebox to an isolation switch in the kitchen.
A new cooker circuit installation in Fordingbridge costs between £180 - £350, but factors like a higher appliance rating which needs thicker cabling and specialist switches could affect the overall price.
As Carlyia Ltd are NICEIC approved, we ensure thorough testing and self certification once installed. This is because new circuits are classed as notifiable work so must meet UK standards. Carlyia Ltd recently carried out a cooker circuit installation at a 3 bedroom semi detached property at Victoria Gardens, with very little disruption to the homeowners and neighbours.
What happens during a cooker circuit installation?
A homeowner at Victoria Gardens called us in to carry out a cooker circuit installation at their semi 3 bed property in Fordingbridge. The project involved providing a dedicated supply for a modern cooker. We routed the cable externally to reduce disruption indoors but still maintained a safe and reliable connection back to the home's fuse board. Protecting heavy duty circuits from overloads is essential so an RCBO was fitted to the fuse board and we only use durable, heavy duty cabling. Projects like a cooker circuit installation require patience and skill, something we have in abundance here at Carlyia Ltd. Although the homeowner was surprised at how promptly we completed the project, we took great care to make sure the installation was neat and tidy to prolong the longevity of the cable.
Can I DIY a cooker circuit installation?
We advise working with an NICEIC approved electrician as installing a brand new cooker circuit is classed as notifiable work under Part P. As an NICEIC electrician, we can actually install the circuit in compliance with regulations such as BS 7671 and self certify. We have to mention that working with electricity is incredibly dangerous. Attempting a cooker circuit installation by yourself could lead to injury or property damage. The homeowner at Victoria Gardens attempted some DIY electrical work a few years ago which didn't go down too well with his wife. This time round, they both agreed that to avoid any arguments, an electrician was the best person for the installation.
