Oven element broke twice
Recently, the oven element snapped and we replaced it with a new one, and we “burned it in” to bake off any manufacturing oils, protective coatings, etc. Today, we were preheating the oven, heard a loud humming/buzzing noise and saw a big light coming from the oven. After turning off the breaker, we looked inside and the oven element broke again. Is it possible we installed it wrong or is there something wrong with the electrical circuit or wiring? If so, who do we call?
