Oven tripping Rcd

My guess is damp asbestos? insulation surrounding the nichrome heating element and the tubing it's run through. Tubing is grounded. This is why the problem goes away after getting the burners to heat up and drive the moisture out.

Makes you wonder why it repeats. Guessing the oven isn’t operated every day, but still, the surrounding humidity would have to be high.
