You have a major short if if trips the power supply to your home, immediately get a licensed electrician to check out the cause of the short. I figure it is probably a loose wire for your oven in your breaker panel, but it is not worth burning your home down or possibly hurting yourself to not call an electrician.
If you decide to fix it yourself, trip the breaker to the entire house before you open the breaker panel. You do not want to become part of the typical 200 amp power supply in most home breaker because of a loose wire in the breaker.
I have seen wires burn off of the breaker near the individual breaker and fall down inside the breaker panel and be in touch with the breaker panel.
You need to check with a licensed electrician for your area that would know the electrical codes. Most houses will all ready have an outlet for the stove and you will have to match it up with for the cord on your stove. Older homes that have not upgraded the electrical, typically will have a 3 wire outlet for the stove. Most newer homes, where the code requires, may have a 4 wire outlet. If you are replacing an existing stove I would recommend getting a new pigtail cord for the new stove so that you have new wires carrying the current instead of trusting old wires. Hope this helps!
Not sure of the cause but the signs are pointing to an overload. Check the power rating of the oven and the standard cabling of the house. They won't match! . Solution is to run a dedicated line for the oven - let a licensed electrician do that in compliance to your local regulation.
Here is a link to the service manual. look on page 12, troubleshooting. If nothing else works, you need to have the wiring check by a licensed electrician, you oven runs on 220 volts. A defective circuit breaker is my best guess. As you know this requires 2 breakers to operate. If even one breaker is defective the stove will not operate. Often the breakers are paired together with a bar or clip. One can still be tripped, but held in place by the good one.
I hope this helps.

From a legal standpoint, it depends on where you live. Some jurisdictions require that only licensed, insured tradespeople ,complete with permits and inspections, can do any electrical work. Others allow a homeowner to do basic "maintenance type" jobs themselves, such as changing light fixtures, switches, and even installing new appliances. If you have to install a new breaker, new branch wiring, receptacles etc., you will likely need the services of a professional. Another consideration is that if the installation causes a loss down the road, fire,or injury, your insurance carrier may abandon you! Your best bet is to call your local Inspection Authority, and most appliance vendors will reccomend good tradespeople in your area. I hope this is helpful, Rob.
Microwave ovens have a transformer inside them that puts out thousands of volts in order to create the "microwave" that cooks the food, but the clock and controls are on the circuit before that transformer. Most of the times the transformer is bad and depending on how much you paid for it, not worth the repair bill unfortunately. But thats why you see the clock, even though the fuse blows. I am assuming you mean the Microwaves INTERNAL fuse, if not then it is a model with a battery backup to not loose data like your alarm clocks do sometimes, therefore you would show the clock but not be able to start the Microwave. If it is the fuse or breaker in your panel that blows, then either the breaker is weak, or the transformer it shot. If it is 120volts, try plugging it into another outlet by either moving it or use an extension cord from another outlet you know work..if it starts, then you either have a bad breaker or some other electrical issue with the receptacle and should get a LICENSED electrician out, I say that because I am a Master Licensed Electrician and just because they say they are an electrician means nothing unless you see their license,plus ins. usually wont pay if there were a problem if an unlicensed person were used. I hope I helped, if so please give me a thumbs up!
