What is the total nameplate load (in kW) of two 3 kW cooktops and two 5 kW ovens?

Explanation:
When determining total nameplate load, add the rated power of each connected appliance. Two cooktops at 3 kW each contribute 6 kW, and two ovens at 5 kW each contribute 10 kW. Adding them together gives 16 kW. This is the total nameplate load for the setup (before any demand factors or diversity considerations, if those apply).
