The 36” requires a 50A breaker, and hardwired to the circuit. No plug.

Hello Al,

Thank you for reaching out and letting us know your inquiry about the required/recommended amp for this Samsung induction cooktop, what kind of outlet it plugs into, and what kind of electrical receptacles it uses. We understand that this information may be essential for you, as you only have one faucet in your apartment. We're here to help.

As per checking, A 3-wire or 4-wire, single-phase, 208 or 240 volts AC, 60-Hz, the power supply is required on a dedicated double pole circuit breaker of at least 40 amps for the 30" cooktop, and of at least 45 amps for the 36" cooktop.

For reference, see pages 6-7 of the installation guide to know more about the electrical requirements of this Samsung induction cooktop.

You need 50 amp circuit and 6 gauge wiring. Will need electrician to upgrade and costs $$$$$

This is not a plug in cooktop, you need a professional electrician to install a 240W, 30Amp connection
