Bosch specifies the NGM3051UC as a four-burner 300 Series gas cooktop in a 30 inch opening, with a total output of 25,700 BTU. That is a deliberately modest number – this is a cooktop built for everyday cooking rather than for wok work, and its lower total output is easier on the ventilation and on the cabinetry around it. It is also the format most often fitted above a wall oven, which is where the installation detail that matters most comes in: the clearance between the underside of the cooktop and whatever is directly beneath it.
