My tefal keeps tripping elcb in fuse board what could be wrong

junk it as it is shorting internally
repair costs are more than new iron

Increase thermostat regulator to maximum

how to exploded? the only way is some chemical inside leak a touch some electrical wires or the thermostat or heating elements. You must report to the supplier manufacturer about this situation. SEE your instru. manual and see the phone, or email, or web .

God bless you

check the wires that lead from wall socket to your iron it might have opened and twisted which could have created short curcuit

The ELCB tripped whenever the plug switch is on.

hello does all the electric go off in your home if so theres a bad earth on the iron or the iron element is shorting out also make sure theres no water getting into the iron good luck

I would almost definitely say yes. Have a friend or family member bring their iron over and try it. I can think of no other reason why it would trip a breaker. Let me know what happens.

i do believe is something wrong with the thermostat or the electronic board.That model i do believe(but i`m not sure) have a small circuit board controlling the temperature and the safety.Make sure also your thermostat handle is working properly because sometimes the connector between the handle and the thermostat can get bad and not adjusting the right temperature
