reglxt 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2011 hmm.... but i already bought my vitroceramic which need 15AMP. i wonder how much i need to pay for my rewiring. oh.... i see... but i think electrical supply more important inside the flat than lifts that are outside the flat. i think you should check with electrician if special socket needed for this hob if cannot use better change to gas asap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
