[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 20397, member: 250"] cooker certainly sounds like a prime suspect? most probably somewhere around the cooker to wall-plate connection. maybe wire pulled loose... touching neutral & earth??? does it trip every time. immediately you turn the cooker on? or is it only occasionally. If every time it will be much easier to track & fix! ;) Is the cooker via a switch with integral socket outlet? if yes does plugging something in the cooker socket trip anything? Try a ins res test @ 250v up cooker circuit see if any suss low reading is present? may need to diss cable from back of cooker and do full ins res @500v to check cables not damaged? thats all i can think of at the moment! :) ;) [/QUOTE]
