Possible Reasons That May Cause Ovens To Trip
How To Prevent Tripping
1. Oven not used frequently
When an oven is not used frequently, there is a very high tendency for it to trip when turned on to very high temperatures. Moisture in the oven causes a direct short circuit causing tripping.
2. Short-circuit in the oven
Another possible reason that has caused your oven to trip is a short-circuit. Faulty components or wear and tear of components can cause tripping to protect the user.
3. Ovens draw alot of power from wiring as well as power points. Over time, these fittings can fail causing tripping as well. Improper wire sizing and wrong power points used can also cause oven tripping.

1. It is recommended to use the oven at least once a week to prevent moisture from accumulating inside the oven. Turn oven to grill mode for 15 to 20 minutes once a week at a temperature of 150 degrees. This evaporates any remnant moisture preventing tripping.
2. If you do use your oven frequently and find that it trips the house, an internal component could be faulty. It is advisable to do a proper diagnostic check on what parts are required to be replaced.
3. Internal wiring and power points have a lifespan of roughly 8-12 years depending on usage. Improper connections and faulty power points can also cause tripping. Our technicians are able to replace necessary components if needed.
