Got a job tomorrow on a Neff oven that trips the RCD.
The customer says it follows no pattern as some days it does trip and some days it does not.
it does not take out the MCB just RCD.
Customer says fan is running OK.
I'm suspecting the element is faulty - can anyone add any thoughts on this...

Hi all.
This is a 7-year old but barely used (10 times max?) dual-fuel cooker that has started tripping the RCD when the oven is used. This is an intermittent fault - the last time it was used, some months ago, it worked fine. The time before that it tripped the RCD after 10 minutes, and when I...

I disconnected the thermostat to see if that was causing the problem first which in this case it was'nt.
I then put the terminals straight on to the element terminals to...

Hi All,
Bit of a basic question here, but my brain is fried!!!!
Got an immersion tank with an element in the top of the tank and one in the bottom.
The one in the top is to be used as a boost for hot water.

I was wondering if I...
