[sharri]

i installed a new secondhand cookers oven( electric )it had a bit of condensation on it it has never been used it keeps tripping out the electric the bottom element works outside the oven but it trips when put back in side can this be repaired thanks for any help

Put the element that does work on and leave it to warm up. This will dry out the condensation and you should find that once this has happened the oven works fine.

There is a similar post on here sometime recent with someone having the same problem.

Have a look here.

Is it an RCD that trips?(it will have a test button on it?)

If so, connect up your oven where it will work (outside) and run it for an hour or two. that should dry it out. Then you can try it inside again.
