    Wow! This helped by saving me £50 for fitting, I am inept with home DIY but really want to learn, so I watched this awesome and very quick video, followed step by step(new hob so no need for silicone and also plugged into wall socket) and hey presto...I completed it and it works great!🇬🇧🖖😀 THANK YOU

    Wowww how terrific, we can ALL be Electricians... Yippeee🤞 Single Ohase/3 Phase, 16/32/49 Amp... Heyy what's the big deal. Just cowboy wire it in to a terminal block and stuff it back through the hole in the cupboard, whack some more Silicone sealant around it and.... Bobs your Uncle, get the Wok on!!! Jeeez some, vids are damn dangerous.!!

    The artificial voiceover makes the instructions harder to understand than necessary. A regular voice with tone and inflection would have made this slicker and more professional.

    In the UK that wiring would be considered illegal, it is also dangerous. If you cannot do it yourself get a qualified electrician experienced in this type of installation, check their registration and references.

      illegal why? common wiring here in Croatia. Among other things, all chandeliers / light fixtures are connect this way - phase + neutral + ground (not always) directly to the wiring in the walls via these clamps shown in the video (not sure how they're called in english exactly)...

      @@LK25278 The connector block is not insulated and it is exposed, presenting the risk of electrocution. UK regulations would not permit that as an acceptable installation. The hob cable would have to connect to the power cable via a purpose made box. Also, the video does not explain how the cable rating/diversity calculations are made. I guess the regulations are less strict in Croatia.

      @@esoxlucius5222 No no, im not an electrician or anything like that, so i dont know for sure, and yes obviously i understand that this is all exposed but i didn't realize the video meant to leave it like that, i suppose it did now that i look at it. I thought to myself this would be okay if it was placed in the hole and covered with a plastic cap with a hole in it for the cables to go through (again im not sure how its called in english. How would you go about insulating it?

      @@LK25278 Ok induction hobs are made with various current requirements, cheap versions plug into mains sockets. Those requirement more power require a more specialist installation. You need to determine the current the hob will draw and fit an appropriate breaker to the power distribution unit, you then need to fit the correct size cable and fit a dual pole isolation switch, this requires a cable going to a box, usually sunk in the wall behind the hob. A face plate connector is used to connect the hob cable to the power cable. All safe with no bare conductors. The isolation switch must be sited for easy access but must be a certain distance from the hob (I can't recall right now) Full detail on UK electrician and regulation sites. It may be different in Croatia. A lot of the online UA-cam videos only tell part of the story. Talk with a skilled electrician to get it right. Take look at this, it is for an oven connection but shows the key components - a hob install would be very similar: ua-cam.com/video/-ymmgBKdWjE/v-deo.html

    Hi! is it possible to connect a 3 phase hob to a single phase outlet?
    is there any risk of overheating or short circuits later on?
    Sorry I can´t really tell from the video

    • @evgenshkaruba4166
      @evgenshkaruba4166 Рік тому

      Yes. This is a very big risk because if you will turned on maximum and installed energy avtomat at 32A and using cables at 2,5mm² (like this video 😢) - this will be fire. Because, you'll using avtomat at 27A (but then you will not using maximum) or upper your cable cross-section to 4mm² or using 3 lines (if you can)
      You will need using power like can or not turn on hob maximum (why 😊). Instruction for better!

    Thats got to be one the most cowboy jobs I have seen on youtube 😮 Using plastic terminal blocks for the connection is shocking and unsafe, should be hard wired into a 45amp outlet that would offer shielding from any spillage from the oven of work surface with the plastic cover... fixing it in with silicone is just "Yeeeehawwww !"..... awful advice for any DIYers and no surprise there's only 278 subscribers to this dangerous channel.. get an electrician in rather than risk this kind of workmanship

    There is no health and safety as in the film the replacement hob is wired into a an unprotected state and possibly live as nothing was mentioned, for odd job guy doing this at home on his own which is not recommended…

  • @ottofumbler7267
    @ottofumbler7267 2 місяці тому +1

    Nope. 👎🏻 This assumes your new hob is pre-wired. Many hobs don't come pre-wired, and then you need to figure out what terminals to use. Are there 6 terminals or 4? Do you need to branch between them? Are you going to use 2 live or 1?
    The moral of the story is... don't watch this video and think you instantly know what to do. Check the specifications of your new hob before buying to see if it comes with or without it's own pre-wired cable.
    Also, make sure your new hob has an equal or lower rated maximum load than the existing hob. If it's a higher maximum load, your existing house wiring or consumer unit might not be suitable.
    You can DIY this task, but there's better videos explaining what to do, and most importantly, what not to do.
