Electrician who knows anything about being an electrician? DXB
Can anyone please recommend an electrician in DXB?
We have a Bosch electric cooker bought off Dubizzle, it has German 3 phase cable with 5 core wires and just needs wiring into the cooker socket, so neatly combining the 3 live wires is the only vaguely challenging bit of the job
mPlus repeatedly made random appointment times which don't correspond to me actually being at home
Octopus say it's far too complicated for them and they don't know how to do it
2 other "24/7" electricians don't seem to work any of the hours in 24 or any of the 7 days which end with a "y"

Might not just be a case of combining the 3 live wires into the socket. Normally a 5 core cable is used for heavy loads so you may want to check the Db as well to make sure it doesn’t trip.

Yeah, isn't there a separate wiring run for these sorts of high-wattage appliances? Not sure you can just wire it into a standard socket.

The wiring run is fine - set up for cooker with isolator switch - and yes Sandy the better way to do it is to bridge in the cooker itself and then use normal three core cable as the load on the neutral could then be too high but, we're never going to run the whole thing all burners at once
A guy came to do it "neatly". He randomly plugged different wires into holes whilst switching the oven on and off - I watched him for a few minutes to make sure he didn't kill himself, said thank you that's perfect and sent him away him. I suspect he may have been completely colour blind. He has wired one of the live wires into neutral so the cooker only partially works. ffs.
