Who needs a cooker or oven connection
People book this work when a new cooker, oven or induction hob is sitting in the kitchen and still needs wiring onto the supply.
- A new kitchen or replacement cookerYou have bought a cooker, double oven or induction hob and need it wired to the isolator so you can cook the same day.
- A landlord changing the kitchen appliancesA rental in Basingstoke, Kempshott or Chineham needs the old cooker swapped and the new one connected before the next tenancy starts.
- A move into a house with no cooker fittedYou have just taken the keys and the kitchen has a spare point but nothing wired on, so the first meal cannot wait on a long wait.
- An oven that has failed on the existing pointThe old oven has gone and the new one is a different load or cable size, so the connection needs checking before it is switched on.
What happens on the day
We come as the electrician for the whole job, from the first look at the isolator to the certificate.
- Arrival and a look at the kitchen pointWe check the isolator, the cable and the rating of the appliance against the circuit already in the kitchen.
- The connectionWe isolate the circuit, terminate the tails, fit the appliance onto the point and restore the supply once the terminations are tight.
- Testing and the certificateWe test the circuit, run the appliance through a short check, and leave the minor works certificate with you before we go.

“Most of my work is domestic: consumer units, full and partial rewires, lighting and EICRs on houses around Basingstoke. I test and certify everything I fit, and anything else I find while I am there gets priced separately rather than added quietly to the bill. The electrician who quotes your job is the one who does it.”

WhatsAppHow much does a cooker or oven connection cost?
A cooker or oven connection starts from £120 when the kitchen already has a cooker circuit and isolator. A minor works certificate starts from £95.
Can you connect an induction hob?
Yes. An induction hob often draws more than an older ceramic hob, so we check the cable and the fuse or breaker before we connect it.
Do I need a new circuit for a double oven?
Many double ovens still sit on a standard cooker circuit. If the load is higher than the existing cable and breaker, we price a new circuit before we connect it.
Will you take the old cooker away?
We disconnect the old appliance so the new one can go on. Removal and disposal of the old cooker is down to you unless we have priced that separately.
Do you connect gas cookers?
We only do the electrical side, such as a spark or clock on a dual fuel cooker. A Gas Safe engineer must do the gas hose and the gas point.
