DIPLOMAT ADP4520 1400 watt fan element

[cookerfit]

I’ve got a couple of these to repair but have not been to site or seen one yet.
The 1400 watt fan element seems to be very low wattage – does anyone know if it operates on its own or in conjunction with another element?
They also seeem to have a high failure rate – is it just design, over use of the element because of its its low wattage to maintain temp or is there something else to be wary of???..

Thanks

The lower wattage is only because they can be fitted with a 13amp plug top if no 45amp circuit is available, in fact the first models that came out only had a 1kw fan element in them and were soon upgraded to 1.4kw as they were extremely slow in cooking, it is the only element in the main oven, top oven is a weird set up and is very slow there was a modified kit available for the top oven but very expensive, might still be available from AW Services.

I have put in 2kw elements if appliance is connected to 45amp supply with no problems as the last versions produced did have a 2kw element fitted and could only be fitted to a normal cooker outlet, the ovens are made by Technogas for MFI so you can get pattern elements as well as genuine, hope this helps.

It’s not obsolete. 😕

Rubbish picture (yes I took it, I’ve gotten better since then) but it is HERE and can be ordered from AW or Masterpart, both stock it so far as I know. It’s a stock line for us as well. Not cheap, but available.
