Questions and answers
What can I do myself?
Cycle the breaker once, as described further down. Nothing else is listed for owners.
Is the fault in the house or in the cooktop?
The article blames the supply rather than the cooktop’s parts, and does not say on which side of the connection the trouble sits.
Who deals with a repeat?
A qualified electrician, according to the article.
Breaker cycle
- Switch the cooktop’s breaker (or breakers) off and wait sixty seconds.
- Switch it on again.
- Look at the cooktop for a minute to see whether F25 reappears.
- Verify that it works.
Beyond that, hands off the supply. Wiring, the junction area and breakers are not owner work.
Other codes with a power angle
