Default Repairing an electric Oven

I am in the process of repairing my Zanussi ZCV667mx lower oven, it has
two ovens. Basically the thermostat has failed meaning the over heat
thermostat has also gone. I noticed when looking at the spare parts
available that there is also what is described as a 230 centigrade
thermostat N0 and also described as TEMP OVERHEAT 230 N C KLIXON. What
is this for. Is it for the Grill protection. I ask this as the grill
works but when on after a while the house RCB trips and as yet not sure
what would cause this.


I'd imagine the RCD trip is a faulty grill element, leaking to earth when
hot.

They are usually easy to replace but probably require access to the back
of the oven.
