Hi, again thanks so much for your help. One of the hobs is now working, the others same problem as before. Which course of action should I now take: wait for the other hobs to start working again or consider trying to diagnosing the fault?
Thanks a lot. If it turns out that there is a fault with the plates themselves, what could be the cause and what part could be affected?
It’s all of the plates as of now. (From a few weeks ago until now, it was only one that would trip the RCD and we made do with using only the other three. At other points in the past, it would be any number that would cause the RCD to flip.)
They have been wet before; we had just cleaned them with water a short while before this present episode of tripping the RCD (I remember the manual saying not to clean them with water as we did, and reading online has shown me why, but mistakes happen). I doubt it (because it’s been a while since we applied the water among other reasons) and am more inclined to think it is a fault with the cooker parts as you say, but I’d be obliged if you could explain why at all the hotplates being wet might have something to do with it as we have felt that suspicion before
My mistake (my understanding was that the hobs were the plates on top of the cooker that heat up when turned on). I just mean the cooker. That’s the correct model you have there–statesman delta50w with a single cavity oven and a cooker. It’s the appliance in the attached image. The four sealed plates on top are what I mean by cooker. Really sorry for not being clear
