If your oven is cutting out and this goes for anyone else experiencing the same problem.
If this is happening WITH ONLY THE COOKER. then either you will need the item looking at for proper earthing OR you will need the wiring checked for the cooker along with the RCD to which the cooker is connected as these can SOMETIMES be faulty.
Does the same happen if something else is plugged into the same socket??? If so then the socket and the wiring to the fuse board/ distribution board / consumer unit must be faulty or the earthing
I gather your cooker has a cord and plug? The connections from the cord and plug into the oven would be where you connect the fixed wiring. This must be done by a licensed Electrician ( In Australia)
If it is a single oven attaching a 13amp plug and connecting it to a socket is fine. If it is a double oven it needs to be connected to a dedicated cooker circuit from your fuse board via a cooker control switch with 6mm twin and earth cable.
He will probably hard wire it from the terminal block inside the back panel of the oven into the cooker switch or outlet plate on the wall.(providing there is one, if not he will have to wire it back to the main fusebox) .
I AM NOT AN ELECTRICIAN ! But i have had the same problem of the oven and the back right ring not working and have found the cause of this. For some reason there is a thermal fuse running inline on a live wire inside the cooker if you feel competent yourself in replacing this fuse you will save a good deal of money on call out fees, here is how to do it. SAFETY is the crucial, First of all isolate the power source to the cooker, pull out cooker so you can get access to the back of the cooker, remove the 9 screws ( i think there is 9) to remove the back plate from the cooker, this is quite heavy because there is a small block of concrete fastened to the bottom left hand side of the back plate, looking at the inside of the cooker on the right hand side you will see a white wire which has been secured via a small screwed clip, this wire has a transparent sleeve covering the thermal fuse, remove the sleeve by sliding it up or down the wire, check the fuse by with a meter just to be sure, if it is blown cut the fuse out. replace fuse the same way it was fitted. replace the sleeve and fit the back on the cooker SAFETY FIRST switch on power and try oven and back ring, mine works fine. like i said at the start i am not an electrician, but i can not understand why there is a thermal fuse running inline to the oven which is linked the back right hob. all the best folks Hobbo from Chess.
once you take of the back of the oven there are some wires going from the cooker to the back cover on one of the wires you will see a microtemp thermal fuse protector this connects the two wires (the white wire) this needs replacing you can get them from tdspares.co.uk we will be getting 121c degree. Hopes this helps
