Wiring problem I am wiring in a smeg se2640 tc electric (ceramic) hob. I have a type 2 terminal board - do I need to purchase terminal push on connectors? Also has three core cable - can you confirm red wire terminal 1 is live wire and terminal 4 white wire is neutral. Thanks, Dave

If they only way to fit your cable is by using the terminal push on connector (which, frankly, i'm not 100% sure what that's describing) and you can easily get that from your hardware store then yes, as long as you can connect up your wires without difficult and without stray copper.

Red wire is live, but white may be live as well during one aspect of operation. Usually neutral is black or blue. If your cable has red white and blue color in it then your using a 3 phase cable. A single phase 3 core cable will have red/brown black/blue green/greenyellow.

Hope this helps. Let me know.
