•
The work surface is square and level, and no structural members interfere with space requirements.
•
The work surface is made of a heat-resistant material.
•
If the hob is installed above an oven, the oven has a built-in cooling fan.

A suitable isolating switch providing full disconnection from the mains power supply is incorporated
in the permanent wiring, mounted and positioned to comply with the local wiring rules and

all poles (or in all active [phase] conductors if the local wiring rules allow for this variation of the
requirements).

below the base of the hob.
