When working on the mains, always turn off the power. Usually, the last-minute hotplates are sold without a connecting cord. Connection of the electric stove should be done with the use of quality terminals. And a socketless connection is used. With this connection, longer wires with fuses can be used. Truth can sometimes be used and rosette. It is important that the current of such a socket is not less than 32 Amperes.

Self-connection of the electric stove is also permissible, but it should be borne in mind that the diameter of the cores in the cable is not less than 4 mm. If the length of the cable exceeds 12 meters, the diameter of the copper core must be at least 6 mm. And the cable should be protected by an autonomous safety device.
Wiring plan for electric cooker
The connection diagram for an electric cooker of this type is called radial. There is also a ring scheme. With this connection scheme, several outlets can be placed on the same cable. It is forbidden to connect several electrical appliances through a bug.
To answer the question of how to connect the hotplate yourself, you should know how many connections there are. And the connection of the built-in electric stove is no different from the connection of an autonomous plate. There is a single-phase, two-phase and three-phase system for connecting hot plates. Since a single-phase system is common in our apartments, the plate should also be connected using a single-phase system. For this purpose, the corresponding jumpers are installed in the terminal block. Then connect the power cable to the terminal block. The outlet should be installed in the location you selected in such a way that the length of the cable is sufficient.
Special care should be taken when connecting the electric cooker to the connection of the burners. The diagram of connecting the burners can be found in the passport, which is attached when buying an electric cooker. Typically, the burner includes a steel casing, a terminal strip, thermal insulation and heaters of a flat type.
The heating element is installed in a cell of the appropriate size. The surface of the burner should be above the surface of the plate itself. There are special screws that adjust the horizontal position of the heating elements. The cores of the cable are attached to the screws and clamped with the corresponding nuts. Connecting a hotplate is a laborious and responsible process. If the heating elements are not correctly installed, the appliance can be damaged.
After you have installed the burners in the electric cooker, you should check whether the connection is made correctly in the switchboard. Only after this you should connect the plate and check its operation in the test mode. And it is important to check in this mode all the options that are provided in the instructions. Based on many years of experience in the operation of electric stoves, it can be argued that if properly connected, the tile will serve reliably and long enough. If you are not completely confident in your abilities, it is better to use the services of specialists.
