Turn on the stove, gpu (not the whole pc) turns off.

I understand high draw appliances like a microwave or toaster can steal power from something, but never heard of a stove doing it.

Anyone know why this is happening? Need a bigger psu?

As others have said, a UPS should remove the input noise to your PSU. But it may be a symptom of something else. Does it only shut down your GPU when it's under load? Might need a bigger one, or the PSU might be on the way out or just not working well. A good PSU is one of the most important components in your system.

Regardless of load. Off it goes.

Only started after i swapped a 1050 for a rx580. Seems the 580 is much hungrier.

What sort of PSU have you got? In been out of the hardware game a long time, bit it always paid to invest in a good quality one.
