Where is the circuit breaker on a electric cooker

I would suggest the wrong wires were cut off and joined. If the ground wire touches the power wire a fuse or circuit breaker will blow.. Before you do anything more make sure the curcuit breaker is not blown. If it is reset it and turn the cooker back on. If the breaker blows again then it is wired wrong.

Check the fuse/ circuit breaker in the fuse box first if that's ok some electric cookers have a fuse or a fusible link inside the back panel, you will need a multimeter to test it (be careful electric cookers are dangerous to work on) if you are not familiar with them.

If your power suply is 240V and the power rating of the ovenis 9.9kw then the expected current consumption is 9900w/240v = 41.25A. Therefore this needs a 8mmsq cable or if not available in your area then use 10mmsq cable. And for the fuse or circuit breaker use 50A

What are you calling a normal socket? 120 volt? If it is not a dedicated circuit, YOU can't do it, you will need to call an electrician. If it is a dedicated circuit,(a socket that has its own breaker, with NOTHING ELSE attatched to it), you take the neutral leg, the white wire, and connect it to a leg of power next to the one that the breaker is connected to. You must change the breaker to a 2 pole, and make sure you are not over amping the circuit. You can only go up 20% on the amperage. Any more, and you run the risk of melting wires, which might cause a fire. Get back to me if you have ANY questions. This is a job for an electrician

hello. I can assist you. begin by going to the electrical panel for your home. You will be looking for the circuit breaker or fuse that controls this hood. Chances are the actual problem is that the fuse blew, or the circuit breaker kicked off. To reset, replace the fuse with a new one of the same amperage, or turn the breaker on and then off and then back on again.

As the dtc95df needs to be wired directly into a cooker outlet it suggest that the appliance needs a minimum of a 30amp circuit.This is to cover all electrical side of the oven being on at the same time.The cooker circuit must be wired in a minimum csa twin and earth cable of 6.0mm and switched through a double poll switch.This would be fused back at the main db board with a min 30amp breaker or 45amp breaker.Cooker switches are rated at 45amp. hope this helps

Check the power label on the unit to see if it is indicating a higher requirement than what your circuit breakers and house wiring is rated for. I have seen some professional equipment indicating 20 amps, and the house power was rated to 15 amps maximum. In this case an electrical contractor had to be called in to replace the wiring and and circuit breaker to meet proper specs. This is expensive!

If the unit is rated under the house power available and the breaker is tripping, then there is obviously a defect in the device and service is required. I have seen heating elements go partialy shorted, or there were thrmostat faults and the device was overheating.

over current protection or circuit breaker is being overloaded therefore tripping. so you need to first find out how many amps this appliance is consuming than use recommended outlet type. say its a 40 amp,240 volt , look on fuse panel to see what size cicuit breaker that is being used.

I would follow these requirements if I were you:

The cooker must be connected to the correct electrical supply as stated on the voltage label on the cooker (This is obvious so far!). It should be connected through a suitable cooker control unit incorporating a double pole switch having a contact separation of at least 3mm in all poles (This means one of those big red switches with "COOKER" written on them). The cooker must NOT be connected to an ordinary domestic power point. The cable size used should be between 6mm squared and 10mm squared twin and earth. Where the installation is protected by a 30 milliamp sensitivity residual current device (RCD Breaker), the combined use of your cooker and other domestic appliances may occasionally cause nuisance tripping. In these instances, the cooker circuit may need to be protected by fitting a 100 milliamp device. This work should be carried out by a qualified electrician.
