Electrics Help!
Moved into the new place, has no oven.
Before we remodel and update I need to buy and fit an electric cooker.
Looking at the terminal box, it only has a Live and Neutral cable going in (1 red and 1 black)
Obviously these are vintage.
If I buy a new oven and fit it, it will have an earth cable.
Will I die or burn my house down, or constantly trip the fuses, if I fit it?it's only for a few months until I get the house rewired and a new kitchen fitted (I say months, electrics is next on the list, so may only be a few weeks)
Can't beat the thought of microwaved dinners for weeks (or worse, slow cooker...)
