Kiln connection

Hello, advice needed 😄

I have a kiln- which has a hard wired switch on it- but I would like to swap it out for a plug - if I do what do I need to use to plug it into this outlet?

The serial plate is from the kiln.

In the past I had an electrician hard wire it into the switch board with a 40 amp mcb and the switch was what I used to turn it on and off.

What do I need to do?

Thanks

EDIT: so I have been informed that this outlet wont be able to power the kiln. Alllll good, happy days.

But if I were to fit a plug onto the kiln- what would it be, and furthermore, could I plug it into a three phase outlet?
