Cooker thermostat problem

[john9159]

How do I check a thermostat in an electric cooker to see that it is corectly working or not?


One thing which concerns me greatly is when the oven reaches it's max temp setting, all the house electrics trip and go out, which has happened several times.

Will this be a fault due to the cooker?

Thank you

Hi John 9151.
What kind of consumer unit is there for the house? Sounds like an overload, but I suppose a faulty thermostat could bring about an earth or fault current. Picture of the consumer unit would be good.

sounds like an overload to me also you will proberly find its on a 20amp fuse or something daft like that
