I have just replaced my old double oven which was about 10 years old with a new model as whenever I used the top oven it tripped the electrics. However the new one is doing exactly the same. Bottom oven works perfectly as did the old one, so question I have, is the oven faulty and it’s a coincidence that it has the same fault or is something wrong with my wiring? Need to call either an electrician or curry’s but not sure which one i start with?
 
If it will stay on, try leaving the top oven powered on at a low heat for several hours.
sometimes moisture gets into the element when left standing a long time and that may dry it out and fix the problem.
if that is not possible or doesn’t work, then an electrician is probably what you need.
