i have had 3 elements for my Neff oven U1721N2gB/05 in the last two years is this normal.
I have had them fitted and they do not seem to last longer than 6 months - a year and blow all the plug sockets when break down. Could it be another fault causing this problem.

- One thing that I ALWAYS do is to let the fan continue to run for a few minutes with the door open to cool the element, same thing I do with the turbo on the car, to cool the unit down. It seems to have worked as the element has been ok for 3-4 years. PS The electrician who replaced the previous element said that some of these elements have got damp and then fail after a few days/weeks as the dampness turns to steam and blows a hole in the element.
- Oven cleaner that gets on the element behind the cover corrodes the element causing it to fail,be carefull when cleaning the oven not to spray the rear panel.
- same as that and i am an electrician. gonna try bosch part

Hi Angie102a, another potential cause to this problem could be an incorrect current going through the element - although usually a fuse would blow before the element can. I'd advise talking to an electrician on this one.
