There should be a dedicated fused socket in the kitchen for the existing oven which could feed the second oven. This will be okay to use as long as it is connected correctly by a professional tradesperson following building regs, and they will make sure that the power from the ovens combined doesn't exceed the fuse capacity in the fuse box (else the mains will trip when the ovens are in use drawing power). Otherwise, you will need a second fused socket and feed for the second oven.
