I've actually had the motherboard on my own oven fail. It is well over 20 years old at this point. The repair man came, scratched off the defective trace, ran a jumper wire between the solder points and its been working fine since. Nice thing is, those old appliance all have wiring diagrams in them.
I had the chuckle brothers out to do my kitchen, fitted my double oven (4.8 kW) on the ring spur. This was after id already asked for to to be installed separately, I had to email the idiot the relevant specs and highlighted not installed to code. Before he came and corrected it. I would have done it myself but my paper work is for low voltages and up to those that will stop your heart in a in a millisecond. It can take several hundreds or kilovolts in my field. I'm now having to make sure any EMF is within certain field strengths at all frequencies for general public safety.
By the way, when dealing with any electronic device like the transformer, they will have short circuit protection, the output will switch off in an overcurrent situation so that must be what is happening here. When you find that there is no output on the transformer, disconnect the load and turn the transformer off and on again. Same with any plug in power supplies, you may get 1-2V DC but that is the overcurrent protection reducing the voltage to reduce the current flowing to protect the load.
He must be bored to start tackling electrical work. He’s surely got enough cash to not be bothered and just get the job done haha At least it means we get a good video out of it.
Insulation test on oven may show good until it’s had good 20 minutes or more then elements can go down to Earth. Usually bottom element enclosed in cavity. See it often
Sticking a load of kitchen (semi-commercial) appliances on a split load board can always be problematic, as the appliances age the leakage goes up a little and starts causing problems.
Split load boards probably need to stop being a thing. Fair enough they made sense "back in the day" when RCDs were expensive and not all circuits had to be RCD protected but RCBOs are pretty cheap these days in the grand scheme of major electrical works like a rewire or board change. Going 100% RCBO prevents leakage issues from things like ovens (which are especially prone to leakage issues as they age) or PCs (which are often surprisingly leaky) from affecting other circuits and saves a little room in the CU, which can be used for something useful like adding a EV charger or a dedicated smoke detector circuit.
Hmm seems to me that he needs to get you to fix the different problems Delroy and perhaps a new oven?? But that transformer setup was really pretty awful eh??
@@chrisardern4594 I always do it anyway, it costs almost nothing and is definitely safer, especially if someone takes off the socket, it keeps the backbox earthed.
What I think: The brown goes back the right screw or between screw and back plane and so the RCD tripped - that is correctly for this device build. Nothing wrong here also. 🙂
In his defense thought. The thing with the oven was not his own fault. If the cable short circuited inside the box it wasnt put in right. The lamp on the other hand might have been himself cutting cables and short circuited the new transformer 😄
a man with that accent should steer clear of DIY 🤣 its not in your blood pal. "while you're here can you just...." ugggh shoot me definitely connected 240vac to the 12vdc out ...don't know what happened just connected it like it said and it started smoking....
He should have done insulation resistance on the circuit. Disconnect from the 45 amp double pole isolator, test the feed. Then disconnect the oven and test before the supply and load cable is fine. Then it proves if the oven that’s faulty.
not necessary so many new LEDs can be run off normal 12v transformers , of course its advisable to use leading edge transformers but many brand make retro fit LED lamps
@@firsteerr It's my experience for replacing the 12V halogen lamps of my kitchen cabinet to LED lamps. The original transformer for halogen lamp didnt output any voltage if I connect them with the LED. Got another two new transformers from screwfix which didn't work as well until I bought the "12V constant voltage LED driver". They took me lot of time Orz
Had a fault once where when the oven reached a certain temp it tripped the RCD - oven element tested okay I found it to be fan of the fan assisted oven shorting out. Swopped out fan unit for new tested fine after that.
It's always the oven element or grill going down. Mine tripped the RCD several times until one day the oven element failed. Replaced element and never happened again until 3 years later. , it was the same problem. Another 3 years and again it went. So on the fourth time I bought a new oven .it was 20 years old. Not mentioned the grill element went once as well.
I hate that kind of "customer" . They try to have stuff fixed on the cheep and when it breaks or doesn't work they want you to fix it with there parts! You don't even get to make a profit on material. Then "while your here" what is wrong with this; I just fixed it myself.! Too many cooks spoil the soup. Sorry these cheep people crank me up.
I disagree I love this guy time you go source the plate and return to the job you have lost money especially when it’s a certain point these customers are fussy so I prefer when the choose the plates His splashback as well was something that could easy break I would say to the customer if it breaks when I’m working here I’m certainly no paying for a new one I always cover myself 👍
