It’s possibly due to the load that cooker draws, most electric cookers require either a 20 amp or 30 fused supply, you’ll need an electrician to confirm but you may find that the new property has a 20 amp fused supply installed whereas your old electric cooker requires a 30 amp fused supply, i.e. your cooker is drawing to much load for the installed supply and the RCD is tripping.

Nah, if it’s drawing too much current the mcb will trip.
If it’s the rcd that’s tripping it will be an IR (earth) fault

HUGE thanks to @Muhammed 'im hard' Bruce Lee

Got me back up and running again without having to replace my cooker.

Was the fan in the end. He diagnosed the fault and came back and replaced the fan and all seems happy again (no issues after leaving it for an hour).

Thanks mate you are a star!

Another win for NSC.
