Britannia / Electric hob / BR2
The glass is damaged
Do not use a hob with damaged glass. Keep liquid away and do not touch damaged areas or investigate beneath the surface. Provide a safely taken photograph and the complete model. A matching outline or width does not establish which glass assembly is suitable; the appliance identity is needed first.
Compare this observation: touch controls do not respond
Describe whether the controls are dark, locked or lit but unresponsive. Include any symbol shown and whether the surface was recently cleaned or affected by a spill. Follow only the normal user-lock instructions for the model. Do not spray liquid into controls or infer a failed circuit board from touch behaviour alone.
The fitting is behind a furniture panel.
Describe the panel, plinth and visible surroundings. Leave the appliance fitted; photographs and an access description are enough to begin.
For the Hayes address
Specify Hayes in Bromley, Kent, with the complete BR2 postcode. This avoids confusing the address with other places named Hayes.
Read the identity, not just the badge.
Quote the complete model and serial or service number from a safely visible label. Similar product names can hide different components. If the label is concealed, leave the appliance in place and tell us the model is unknown.
We do not invent a model catalogue for this brand. Send the exact label details for an individual check.
A useful question for the enquiry
Does “the glass is damaged” establish the failed part?
No. Describe that observation separately from “touch controls do not respond”. Explain whether they began together or at different times, and include the fitting detail: the fitting is behind a furniture panel. The inspection can then consider the symptoms and safe access together.
