Electric cooking

Check the wiring behind the five-pin socket.

Perilex is a Dutch five-pin connector often used for cooking appliances. Its shape does not reveal how the socket is wired, so the appliance and supply need to be checked together.

  • Actual wiring of the supply
  • Appliance rating and diagram
  • Any circuit or cable changes needed

Describe what you see

When might you need this service?

You do not need to diagnose the installation yourself.

01

A new Perilex outlet is needed

02

You want an existing outlet checked

03

A new hob does not work with the current connection

What the electrician checks

Understand the work before you agree.

01

The connector does not prove compatibility

Perilex outlets can be wired in different ways. Never connect an appliance solely because its plug fits; the supply and appliance instructions must match.

02

Agree whether the appliance is included

A new outlet, inspection of an existing one and connecting the hob are different jobs. Describe what is in place and what you need done.

For homes in the Netherlands

Coordinate with the kitchen plans

Share the make and model of the hob or cooker, the kitchen fitting date and where the connection should be. A Perilex plug shape alone does not tell you how an existing socket is wired.

A kookgroep is a cooking circuit. The electrician assesses the suitable supply using the appliance specifications and existing installation.

Start with a few details

Describe the job in plain English.

Tell us what you see, where the work is and how we can reach you. You do not need to choose a technical solution before contacting us.

Send your request

A request is not a confirmed booking.

Prepare your request

These details are useful.

  • Make and model of the appliance
  • Whether there is already a Perilex socket
  • Access to the outlet and fuse box

In a rented home or apartment?

Tell your landlord or property manager about a fault and check who can approve changes to fixed wiring. Mention access to a shared meter room or parking area where relevant.

Know what you are agreeing to

Ask for the full cost before work starts.

The price depends on the fault or installation, materials, labour and timing. Describe your situation so we can discuss the relevant charges before you confirm a visit.

How costs are discussed
01

Visit and diagnosis

Ask about a call-out charge and fault finding.

02

Labour, materials and VAT

Ask for the expected total, including applicable VAT.

03

Urgent or additional work

Check possible evening or weekend charges, and agree to extra work first.

04

For this particular job

Checking an existing connection is different from installing a new circuit and cable. Ask for the full scope in the proposal.

Questions

Questions about perilex connection.

You can call if your situation is different.

Does Perilex always mean three-phase power?

No. The socket appearance alone does not tell you how it is wired. An electrician should check it.

Do I need to know what caused the problem?

No. Tell us what stopped working, when it started and whether it affects a room or the entire property. Do not open the fuse box or try to repair exposed wiring yourself.

Is my online request a confirmed booking?

No. We contact you to discuss the job, expected timing, availability and costs. An appointment is confirmed only after you agree.

I rent my apartment. Who should I contact?

You can describe the problem to us, but also tell your landlord or property manager. For work in shared parts of a building, access and permission may need to be arranged.
