Can I connect the oven and hob to the same outlet
Good afternoon. In the kitchen there is one power outlet, if not mistaken, 32A. Copper wire, cross section about 3 mm. There used to be an electric stove. Can I connect both the oven and hob to it? The power of the hob is 7.4 kW, the oven is 2.9. Or is it possible to connect the oven to a conventional outlet? How to do it better? Putting another power cable is not possible, a thorough repair has been made. Thanks in advance.

You need to know exactly what section of the cable to make a conclusion what kind of load can be connected to this outlet. The nearest standard sections are 2.5 square meters. mm and 4 sq. mm Circuit breaker for cable protection 2.5 sq. mm - no more than 16 A, for a cable of 4 square meters. mm - not more than 32 A. That is, if the outlet is single-phase, then the maximum load is 16 or 32 A (if the cable cross-section is 2.5 or 4 square mm). Most likely you have a three-phase outlet - it means the maximum load for each phase is 16 or 32 A (for cross-sections of 2.5 and 4 sq. Mm). You need to know what the load of the hob per phase and what the load of the oven per phase, which according to the passport the connection diagrams of the oven and hob. If the load exceeds the permissible limit for the cable, then the only option is to lay a new cable.
