Fuse tripping with new double oven?

I just install a double oven using a 10mm cable back to a 32amp breaker. There is an cooker isolation switch in between and a connector between the inbuilt cooker cable and 10mm cable.

Everytime I put the power on from the isolation switch it trips. I realised it could be the cooker but I was also wondering if this could be because the breaker is 32 amp.

The inbuilt cable from the cooker is a small gauge to that of the 10 mm.

Any help would b appreciated.

The size of the breaker unless it was too low will not cause the tripping. 32 amps should be more than enough for an oven. Double check all your connections to make sure they are wired correctly & no wires are touching metal or another wire. After connecting you should of tested the appliance 1st without power on with a test meter to ensure safety & everything is working.
