Electrical Appliance Installation
Appliance installation
New dedicated circuit
Certificate on completion
Where the appliance needs a new dedicated circuit run from the consumer unit, that is priced separately from £180 depending on cable route and distance. Quoted in writing before we start.
What the installation covers
Appliance connection
The appliance is wired to the correct outlet or cooker point using cable sized for its load, with terminations checked and torqued properly.
Circuit and protection check
We confirm the existing circuit and protective device can carry the appliance safely, and fit a new dedicated circuit where the load requires one.
RCD protection
Where the appliance needs it — an electric shower being the obvious case — we make sure the circuit is protected by an RCD or RCBO to current standards.
Testing on completion
Earth continuity, insulation resistance, polarity and loop impedance are measured and recorded, so the work is verified rather than assumed.
Certification
You receive a Minor Works or Electrical Installation Certificate as appropriate, and we notify Building Control where the work is notifiable under Part P.
Why appliance wiring is not just a plug
Ovens, hobs and electric showers draw far more current than a standard socket is designed for. They need a circuit sized to their load, protected by the right device and terminated in fittings rated for the job. Connecting a 7kW shower to an unsuitable circuit is a genuine fire risk, not a technicality.
Some of this work is notifiable under Building Regulations Part P — a new circuit, or any work in a bathroom or shower room. Notifiable work carried out by someone unregistered leaves you needing Building Control to inspect and certify it retrospectively, which is slower and more expensive than doing it correctly.
Uncertified appliance wiring also shows up on an EICR later, usually as a C2 you then have to pay to put right. Having it tested and certified at the point of installation avoids that entirely.

Electrical Appliance Installation FAQs
From 120 pounds where a suitable cooker point or circuit already exists. If a new dedicated circuit has to be run from the consumer unit, that is from 180 pounds depending on the cable route.
It depends on the load. Most single ovens can run from a suitable existing circuit; induction hobs, range cookers and electric showers almost always need their own. We check before quoting so there are no surprises.
A new circuit is notifiable under Part P, as is any electrical work in a bathroom or shower room. We notify Building Control for you and provide the certificate.
