Hotpoint Aquarious cuts out fusing house?

I hit start and the fuse box in the house trips. If on low heat could get it to run for 2-3mins bofore fusing all. Fuse in plug is fine.Worked perfectly till we moved. Anyone any ideas??

If it is a condenser dryer and you moved it without draining the sump, then as you tilted it some water would have gone into the fan blade area and fan would have thrown water into the heater thereby causing heater to trip electrics. Unplug appliance and remove rear fan cover and dry heater with hair dryer.Cheers
