Dual Fuel Range Cooker With 13amp Plug

Are you a home cook who loves the flexibility of gas cooktops but requires an oven to bake in? Discover a dual fuel range cooker that offers the best of both worlds.

What is a 13amp plug?

If you have a dual fuel range cooker reviews-fuel range cooker (also known as a gas cooker and electric oven) you'll need a 13 amp plug. The plug must also be hard-wired by a certified electrician to the cooker ring.

This ensures that the current flowing through the plug does not exceed the safe limit, which could lead to an electrical fire. The current is controlled by a fuse inside the plug. The fuse explodes as soon as the current passes through it beyond its capacity. This safeguards the appliance from an overload of electricity.

The fuse is rated at 13 amps, as shown on top of the plug. This is the maximum amount of current the plug could carry without damaging the appliance or heating the socket. When replacing fuses, it's essential to select the same amperage rating as the original. If you replace the fuse using one with the different ratings, you run the risk of overheating the socket and possibly placing yourself and others at serious risk.

The first step is to remove the sheathing from the flex in order to expose the three conductors insulated within. Then, cut the sheathing near the point of entry to the plug (beyond the cord grip) using a utility knife, without piercing the individual conductors that are insulated. This nick must be large enough to allow the sheathing and cable to separate as the sheathing is pulled back. Finally cut off the excess sheathing, leaving about 40mm extending beyond the flex end.

The flex is then positioned over the plug, with the earth terminal at the top and the live and neutral terminals at the bottom. Using the coloured conductors to guide you to the right direction, the sheathing should be removed from each pin, and the internal cable is inserted to the correct terminal using the cord grip. If the plug has an attached cord clamp that is screw-type, let it loosen and then pull the insulation back to reveal the copper wires. Finally, connect each of the conductors insulated to the appropriate terminal (starting with the earth, then neutral and finally the live) by using the channel they run through in the plug.
