Now, turn oven on, and see if the voltage stays on as it reaches 100C.
If it does, then the element (or the connectors to it - check) has
failed,
and is going open circuit when it gets hot.
If not, then it's a fault in the thermostat/...

Thanks for the help, didn't need to use the meter in the end, when I pulled
the bottom element to take a look it was in pieces. Now I just have to find
one. Merloni spares are shut for the day. Teach me not to start the job
sooner.
