We have a Jenn-Air CCE3401B that is shot. The diagrams say it used 120/240 volts and 7.0 kilowatts, but we can't find how many amps were used. We now want to buy a new cooktop, but don't know if our same wiring will work. The one we want says it uses 40 amps; 240/208 volts and 8.3 kilowatts. Help!

soory it took me so long to respond to ya i didn't see the notice of the notice in my inbox of this comment...i would say its very easy in fact i think ya wont have to do anything and what ya have already existing to the current cooktop will work fine with the new cooktop all ya need to do is check in your house breaker panel at the number on the breaker for the cooktop and it will have the amps right on the part ya would reset if it were tripped and ya had to reset it...if that number is either 40 or 50 its fine and will work just fine with the new cooktop....GENE soory it took me so long to respond to ya i didn't see the notice of the notice in my inbox of this comment...i would say its very easy in fact i think ya wont have to do anything and what ya have already existing to the current cooktop will work fine with the new cooktop all ya need to do is check in your house breaker panel at the number on the breaker for the cooktop and it will have the amps right on the part ya would reset if it were tripped and ya had to reset it...if that number is either 40 or 50 its fine and will work just fine with the new cooktop....GENE
