The catch is, when plugged in/installed as per AEG documentation, my

I noticed that for my previous Ariston cooker - soon to be ebayed
(??!!??) - the earth leakage resistance was higher than the meter

I read somewhere that cookers are notorious for high earth leakage.

Try temporary connection to a non RCD protected circuit, turn it on for
an hour or two and then try again.
