I've seen advice on other forums that suggests the existing earth wire should be connected to the fixing screws? Is that not necessary?

Answer this Question (2 Answers)

  • The first answer is correct, but the earth wire should have its terminal insulated with tape or block and be tucked into one of the restraining clips on the harness, so that there is no static build up danger. The earth wire must not enter the oven space as this has now been classified differently by the relevant authorities. It is not satisfactory to connect it to the fixing screws of the element. This is why the terminal has been removed. By Anonymous - Burley, Hampshire - 26 July 2013
  • This is not necessary as the oven body is earthed. I just covered the existing earth wire and tucked it down the back of the oven. By Anonymous - - 28 December 2011
