In that case do you mean that the insulation is giving up?

If so, how would you test for that?

When electron's collide they give off heat and are used as a source of energy but they should only collide at the load.

I'm mistaken arn't I?

You're not as I initially assumed, the same sinewave as on the S/F forum!
 
Thanks guys. Its weird after a few days it started working again without any problems, my guess is that i had a leak where trhe cable runs, (fixed it last week) it was probably wet or somethin... :LOL:

more likely there was an intermittent short circuit. This has probably burned through. This is not unusual, especially where a screw or nail has gone into it which can be very dangerous. You really need to trace and fix the fault.
 
Makes sense as well. Though i traced the cable half way the other half is in the Ceiling where im sure Nothing was drilled into it.. so does the leak i had make sense for the Probable cause ???

No.

Cables are waterproof so are unaffected by leaks.

A cooker circuit should have no breaks in it between the CU and the Cooker switch.

My apologies for sending this stupid and potentially lethal information : (see cooker/fuse blows) but my post was interupted by softouch asking /suggesting silly questions and trying to be a big man which i handled : but forgot this information goes out to many

My silly replies were directed at him only and i apologise to all members once again. :(

No point in saying anything you just might believe it.

Well as far as I’m concerned, he was being sarcastic and he apologized . I think if you’d actually have someone on here who would follow what he said, he clearly don’t belong on here so let him get buzzed !

well the leak was at the kitchen wall so it looked in the cooker so the water mad it trip. That’s the only way I can see that happen. Like I said no nails or screws! 100% sure

...My cooker/oven circuit (40 amp) keeps blowing. I disconnected the switch to try to locate where the problem is, it has to be between the consumer unit and the switch.

if this is true, where do you think the water got in?
