Hi , my oven keeps cutting out anyone experienced with ovens??

Yes.....if it cuts out and then trips the electrics !!! Do you live there or is it a holiday home. Thanks Maggie.

Hi, holiday home but it didn't used to do this.

Hi, sounds as if one of your elements is away, although it will be hard to find which one, I'm sure repair to one element cost around 60E but not across to advise which company came to replace.....

Can anyone recommend a company please

I'm not an electrician, but I'd try turning the oven on tomorrow, with nothing else drawing any substantial current (kettle's, fire's, iron's etc) - Fridges/Freezers are ok, then see if it still cuts out. If you're only on 15 amps, as the RCD's (cut-offs on the house fuse board) are pretty sensitive, you may be just pushing the limit and trying to draw a little more current than your 'allowance'. If you have the new meters fitted, then they're even closer to the mark - as we found out yesterday while cooking our Sunday Lunch!

Hi, we have tried this so think its the oven ie perhaps element or something....but thanks for advice.

Hi it could also just be a loose wire.

Ours has just done exactly the same.....yes it was the element gone. A fairly expensive job am afraid but cheaper than a new oven . A very common thing due to damp and not being used regularly.

Would you like the telephone number of the guy who did ours...fully qualified Electrician and did an excellent job x

That would be great siestasunbeds my husband thinks its probably that and as its winter I really need my oven
many thanks
