At the moment in the UK, sunrise is at NE, and sunset at SW. So output should be more from the south string.

What make and model of oven was the old one ? Most likely the oven element is permanently attached to a circuit board that is powered up when you switch the oven on. Which incorporates the on/off, temp, and timer functions, rather than a simple switch. So if the element is starting to fail...

Sunrise and sunset compass points vary throughout the year. Today in Wiltshire the sun rose near NE, and will set near SW, never reaching west. So the east string should produce more today, clouds allowing !

Did the dimmer switch stop working, or are the LED lights failing ?

Even though this is a UK site, how can any US posters advise when you haven't even said which State you are in ?

Which cable is it in circuit with ? As Mike Smith said is where it should be, to show what is being generated.

Shurely to let the Magic Smoke out ?

Easy enough to find out which string is working - find out what time PV2 voltage peaks.

I read a lot about "spoon-fed " teenagers. Spoon-fed mains is a new one for me.

"The earth must be going through somewhere else in the machine then, and we didn't touch it." "Must be connected" is not good enough. For safety reasons the electrician must verify that the machine is earthed. You may find the mains cable is connected to a terminal block with L, N, and E...

Was "The Flight into Egypt" flown by Pontius Pilate ?

"And your suggestion to identify the culprit achieves little or nothing as any one of several appliances could be the one that tips the RCD over the edge" Possibly, but why don't you wait for the results of the tests before nit-picking ?

Cumulative leakage had already been suggested as a cause, without any suggestions on identifying the culprit. My suggestion goes some way towards that, if as device is not present it doesn't matter if N is not dissed.

Hi Aaron I expect that RCD lives in your Consumer Unit, and protects half of the house's circuits. 1. Switch off all the MCBs that the RCD feeds, except for the one that feeds the dryer. Does it still trip ? See 3. 2. If no trip, switch on the rest of the MCBs one by one, building up to...

Charges extra for punctuation.......... :->

"Probably two apurs" Question was for the OP, "probably" isn't a safe answer.

You have checked it's not the lights that are fault, by powering with another adapter ?

Also, the SOCKETS MCB nearest the top of the images has one red and one brown wire and is rated 16A. Is that a ring or two spurs ?

Yes hate those pouty botoxed selfies.

Sounds like the RCD has coincidently become faulty, as it's unlikely that all the items you got fails with have become faulty at the same time. But I dunno, would L and N reversed on the Inverter cause this sort of problem ?
