Bosch oven HBN3318B
All...need a bit of help. I have purchased a bosch oven that needs to be hard wired on the oven part. but I'm not sure what type of power cord /cable connector i need to make the oven work so any pointers would be appreciated. Pic of the back of the oven is attached. Many thanks. Nawaz

Re: Bosch oven HBN3318B
What rating is the oven?
......and what do you intend to connect the other end of the cable to?

Would you hit a nail with a shoe because you don't have a hammer? of course not, then why work on anything electrical without a means of testing Click Here to buy a "tester" just because it works, does NOT mean it is safe.

Re: Bosch oven HBN3318B
Thanks, these are specs from the installation sheet..
Electrical connection rating (W) : 2350
Current (A) : 13
Voltage (V) : 220-240
Frequency (Hz) : 50; 60
Plug type : fixed connection, no plug
I was planning connecting the other end of the cable to a standard 13A socket (the socket my old electric oven was plugged into). I thought it would be simple job of taking the old one out and putting the new one in - but unfortunately Bosch had other ideas about making connecting an oven an easy task!

Re: Bosch oven HBN3318B
2350 W should be pluggable (if that's a word). However MI's always should be followed. A 13 Amp switched fused unit fitted down t one of these https://www.diy.com/departments/crabtre ... icamp=recs
(picked at random) and 2.5mm sq twin and earth should be more than man enough. Unless the MI's say you need a different type of cable.

Re: Bosch oven HBN3318B
thanks for the reply - already have the switched fused unit & wall socket fitted. I can't work out what type of connector i need to buy and where from so i can connect the other end of the cable to the oven unit.

Re: Bosch oven HBN3318B
Yes, understood - how is the 1.5mm 3 core flex cable attached to oven.
Does it have to be soldered on? Or can I purchase a type of connector where I can screw the 3 cable ends in and attach to oven (this is my preference).
Thanks

Re: Bosch oven HBN3318B
You don't need a connector. Those "studs" are the connectors. You loosen (don't undo completely) the screw, lift up the little plate behind the screw, poke the wire in under the plate*, tighten the screw up and give the wire a tug. If it comes out you have done it wrong.nawaz83 wrote:I can't work out what type of connector i need
You obviously strip the end of the wire about 1cm.
As only me says you need 1.5mm flex and a plugtop.
I would suggest This flex (You can buy just 2m) and this plug
You must have a decent plug if you don't it will over heat
