The normal amount of current drawn by this oven should be written on the name plate (where the model number is). Gene. There suppose to be one or two more numbers after "S" in the model number.

Also as Gene said What exactly is happening???

Also as Gene said What exactly is happening??? when cooking in upper oven it blows the breaker sometimes after 15 min sometimes it may not, and or if i shut the door hard it may do the same , I think something is loose and causing a short ,What do you think?I even checked all the connections and all seem fine. Thanks, Ed

I think something is loose and causing a short ,What do you think? I think you are right but finding it is going to be a pain. If the above I assume is correct then I would concentrate on the wires that have power only when this unit is on. You will have to do a slow and complete inspection of each wire's insulation. Would also check the frame for signs of an arc. If you hear an arc or smell ozone at the oven when it pops the breaker then you know you have an intermittent dead short somewhere. Gene may have a much better feel for this than I do.
