My electric keeps tripping when turn fan oven off

Anonymous user 23/02/2024 - 2.53 PM

My electric keeps tripping when i turn my fan oven OFF. I find this strange because the oven is working fine. It is about 6 years old. And we have had no problems before. It is on the same circuit as some other sockets. Many thanks.

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Its most likely a Neutral to earth fault causing RCD to trip. This could be due to the element or oven control knob. either way its pointing to a fault on the appliance so you'd be advised to get an appliance engineer to look at it before it gets worse.
