[QUOTE="Doc Hudson, post: 424558, member: 1607"] There are specified tripping times and current that the RCD must operate within for it to be compliant with BS7671 wiring regs and to offer safe disconnection of power in the event of a fault. A competent electrician can verify this comfortably within in 10 or 15 minutes using a suitable RCD tester. If the RCD is working correctly a new board with another correctly working RCD will most likely give the same symptoms. Have you still got the instructions for your oven, what do they say about electrical connections. Doc H. [/QUOTE]
