Does it matter to widen the distance of oven heater ends?
Hi,
My electric oven does not work anymore. It is found that the heater must be replaced. I purchase a heater element in nearby store. The problem is that the two ends of the new element are separated than the original one. Can I use tools to shape the two ends, i.e. to widen their distance to about 1cm in order to install it? I worry about the damage may incure. The second question is that anything to avoid electric shock relating to the installment. What measures should check after the replacement? Although I can repair normal applicance, I am still concern the safety issure involved. Thanks. |
