What is the difference between a wall oven and a regular one?

A wall oven is an oven that is installed inside the kitchen wall and does not extend far into the kitchen, as opposed to an oven that is separate from the rest of the kitchen and not affixed to the wall.


A wall oven requires a booster transformer to make it heat up and it has been suggested that this be installed in a bedroom closet next to the electrical box but are there any dangers?

This is just a guess, but it sounds like the person fitting the oven does not want to have a new 240 Volt circuit installed to supply the oven and plans to use an existing 120 Volt wall outlet using a 120-to-240 Volt step-up transformer. To conform to the latest Wiring Codes, a wall oven usually has to have its own dedicated circuit with correctly sized breakers, wiring and outlet. The circuit should be designed to supply whatever voltage and current the wall oven requires without using any separate transformer. Are you are having the wall oven installed by a licensed electrician or by a kitchen fitter? If you are not sure if the person who is talking about using a transformer is actually a licensed electrician who is following the Wiring Codes for your locality (Town/State) then the best advice anyone should give you is to refuse to have any electrical work done for your wall oven until you have had a second opinion from an independent licensed electrician or electrical engineer.
