Any cooking appliance over 2kw should have its own dedicated radial circuit.

However, many 4 burner induction hobs are now rated sufficiently, that they can be plugged into the socket outlet that was once used for gas hob ignition.

Some single ovens are rated at 16a, due to having a pyro clean function.

So to say it’s a only a single and can be plugged in, is incorrect.
now, why on earth didn't you say that in your first post, instead of trying to be a smart arse?
I wrongly assumed that someone being an ex electrician would know basic stuff.

Judging by the other replies, I guess not.

And as I said, diversity.

Yeah, this.
