Observations

  1. The repetitive spikes are caused by the dryer (with a peak around 1.5 KW).
  2. based on this it started around 19:40 and stopped a bit past midnight (I also think I manually stopped it in this case). So that is more than 4 hours !!

When checking the filter (Siemens Bosch Pluizenfilter Wasdroger 00650474) it might be the case that the fine holes of the filter are clogged so that air can hardly circulate through it.

So yesterday I have put the 2 filters in the dishwasher and they came out very clean (also air circulation through the filter seems OK now). So hope that this fixes the problem.
