All homes are different and have varying electrical conditions, such as voltage, phase count, and connection type. Most induction hobs require a fixed installation, which is why a connection cord is normally not included. The installation must be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure the hob is connected correctly based on your home's specific setup.
During installation, the electrician will supply and attach a suitable connecting cable while verifying that the setup meets all applicable safety standards. This guarantees that your product operates correctly and safely.
There are exceptions: lower-power hobs can use a standard wall plug. Our LAGAN hob comes with a connecting cable included. These models are much simpler to install, just plug it into a wall socket and start cooking!
Why is my induction hob not supplied with a cord?
Your hob requires a fixed installation, so no cord is included. A suitable connecting cable must be supplied and fitted by a qualified electrician.
