    I am dealing with the purchase of an induction hob. I have a dilemma which to choose.
    Installation in an apartment 230V max. 4.5 kV.
    Can I mount a 7.2 kV board and use it carefully?
    Should I mount a 4.0 kV hob, only or will it not be too slow to cook?

    Enter what other electricity receivers you have installed in the apartment.
    ps. power is measured in kW, not kV

    Hi.
    If you have a power allocation of 4.5 [kW], you probably have a protection of 20 [A].
    If you do not request a larger power allocation, the use of the 7 [kW] plate may not be possible, unless you write reasonably. It will only probably happen that someone will turn on the washing machine, something else and will, unfortunately, throw off the security.
    Regards.

    How many half plates and what power of individual segments? I have a tourist one-field ALASKA with a power of 1800 W and I cook great at 20% of the power. You need full power to bring the contents to the boil QUICKLY, and you use some of the power for cooking.

    Washing machine, oven, TV, fridge, kettle.
    I know that when I turn everything on to the maximum, I know. I'm more interested in whether the 3.7 kW hob has any reasonable cooking time

    This is the answer, finally, how many half of this disc is and what is the power of individual discs. As I wrote above, 1800 W / field gives more than reasonable cooking time and 1200W / field is also enough.

    The board has four Bosch PIA611T66E fields
    2X1.4kW
    2X1.8kW

    Connected load 3.68kW / 230V

    Hi.
    I have a board with four fields 2x1.8 [kW] and 2x1.0 [kW]. I am satisfied and I do not miss anything when cooking.
    Regards.

    I conclude from your statements that the hob with four poles with a connection power of 3.68kW / 230V will work in my apartment. With installation 230v 4.5 kW

    Thank you very much for all your help

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the selection of an induction hob for a 230V apartment installation, specifically comparing models with power ratings of 4.0 kW, 4.5 kW, and 7.2 kW. Users emphasize the importance of existing electrical load, noting that a 4.5 kW allocation typically corresponds to a 20 A protection, which may not support a 7.2 kW hob without risking circuit overload. Participants share experiences with various hob configurations, highlighting that a 3.68 kW model with four cooking zones (two at 1.8 kW and two at 1.4 kW) provides satisfactory cooking performance. The consensus suggests that a 4.0 kW hob is adequate for reasonable cooking times, while a 7.2 kW model may be impractical unless the electrical system is upgraded.
