[QUOTE="Mjward, post: 505775, member: 33474"] Puzzling one to me and my sparky isn't available for a week so hoping there might be a simple fix: The electric oven keeps turning itself off. Oven technicians came out today to fix but said can't do anything as tested the socket and the ohm reading is too high ("over 10 ohms"). Tested other sockets and also all too high (again told "all over 10 ohms). Now I got an electrical certificate (EIRC) only 5 months ago, nothing flagged and max Zs for these circuits 2 and below. I guess A) what could have changed in that time and B) is it right to think that solving A could be what is triggering the oven to turn off? Thanks in advance to any and all replies, I've got a tenant in so keen to solve as quick as I can [/QUOTE]
