[QUOTE="Tom M, post: 492792, member: 32385"] I’ve recently purchased and moved into my first home (3 weeks ago). The property has an integrated electric Lamona cooker (oven and hob), which was present prior to our ownership. During conveyancing, all satisfactory electrical certificates were supplied. Today, I noticed the isolator power switch does not isolate power to the appliance; the only way to turn it “off” is to set the oven and hobs to an off setting themselves. I’m sure the isolator switch has worked previously since we moved in, although I cannot be 100% sure, as I always set the oven and hob settings to off, as well using the isolator switch, to power off. Does anyone know what is likely to be the cause for this and a solution? I have not attempted to remove the isolator cover or cooker to inspect further yet, but I cannot see another place the cooker is plugged into for a power source. For background, I’m not an electrician by any stretch of the imagination! Thanks for the help in advance. [/QUOTE]
