Isn't about 3kw about 13amps so 1.5 kw should be fine?

When they're on about being 'wired in' all they're meaning is any connections / additional circuits should be made by an approved spark, the cooker in question will work off a plug top, a lot of them do nowadays, it is only pulling 6 amps +/-
Is there a socket outlet nearby that it will plug into, if so, is it on a ringmain or a radial and what fuse / trip size is on the circuit.

There is a traditional cooker 'big red switch' on the wall - this red switch controls a socket under the counter, behind the cooker, which the cooker plugs into.
I'm not talking about pluging it into a 'normal' socket - I'm talking about plugging it into a socket that is controlled by the big red switch - which is where the current cooker is currently plugged into.

You posted that while i was typing lol.
When you say there is a socket under the switch, is it a convetional 3 pin 13 amp type, if so, go for it, looks like its been adapted previously
