            A:  It is likely that the same plug can be used. First make sure that the voltage rating of the range is the same as that of the wall oven. If this is not the case you will need a new circuit. Next make sure rhe current rating of the range is as large as that of the wall oven. If the range required more current tnat is okay, if it required less then you will have to check the breaker panel and be sure the breaker and circuit capability is greater than or equal to the wall oven requirements. I assume that the wall oven will replace the range. If both are used you will need a new circut for the oven. If you are unfamiliar with all of this, the ask an electrician to come have a look.

            A:  Possibly ... capacity should be just fine, since oven outlets should be 40 or 50 amp, but there are two other matters to consider: First, if the range outlet is newer it'll be 4-wire and will work fine, but if it dates back too far it'll be a 3-prong style and the "company line" will be to engage an electrician to change it over. Second is cord length. Be sure that the length of the cord is sufficient taking into account the position of the wire connection on the oven and the placement of the outlet. In some scenarios (with the outlet at the rear of the oven space) you'll want to plug in the oven cord while the oven is positioned just outside its space, then slide it into place. In other scenarios (with the outlet below the oven space) the cord must be long enough to drop down below the oven once it is slid in and then plug it in once fully in place (accessing the outlet and hanging cord through a cabinet door or panel below or to the side of the oven space).

                  Q:Will this plug work for a dryer? My dryer outlet is 4 prong but it has an L at the bottom. This one fits the outlet fine, but I want to be sure it's safe to use with a dryer.
