🔌 3 Must-Know Rules for Leicester Homes

1.✅ Dedicated Circuit Required

• By law, your cooker needs its own wiring (no sharing with other appliances)
• We use 6mm or 10mm cables (Leicester homes often need upgrades)

2.✅ RCD Protection is Essential

• Prevents electric shocks (required by UK law)
• We test this on every Leicester installation

3.✅ Proper Cooker Switch Needed

• Must be within 2m of your appliance
• Never hidden behind the oven (common issue we fix)

⚠️ Danger Signs Your Leicester Installation is Unsafe

• Burning smells from your oven/hob
