3.3 How induction hobs function
Induction hobs work very differently from conventional hobs or hot plates. The
induction coils under the glass ceramic plate produce a rapidly changing
magnetic field which directly heats up the magnetic base of the cookware.
The glass ceramic plate is only warmed by the hot cookware.
Removing the cookware from the cooking zone immediately interrupts the
supply of energy.
Induction hobs are:
– quick reacting
– finely adjustable
– powerful
– energy-efficient
– safe.
Induction hobs can only be used with cookware with a magnetic base.
