These are a couple of photos of a fan oven element connections.
This first photo is of the old element.
This second one is of the new replacement.
You can see that because of the length of the protruding element end, there's significantly less "tab" for the spade connector to grip.
If I hadn't been in a hurry to mend the oven I would have sent it back but I chose instead to grind off the excess element end back to the spot weld to provide the necessary length of tab for a good connection.
I emailed the pictures to the supplier but I've heard nothing since.
How dangerous is this and should I be pestering the supplier more about supplying potentially dangerous elements?
