Title of Question: Sauna stove (with electrical element)
Name: RS City: Finland
Question: I have an electrical sauna stove. One of the heating elements now doesn't work -- it doesn't glow red. I'm good at basic DIY and hate call-out charges. To avoid the call-out charge from an electrician, since I know where the fault is, my plan is to remove the stove after shutting down the electricity from the my house's main circuit, and then bring it to an electrical specialist for him to replace the defective element with a new one.
My question is: is refitting the sauna stove to the electrical point a simple process? (I ask, because I haven't yet undone the sauna, so don't know what the wires look like there.)
Please confirm or advise on any issues!
