• The induction cooking plate is a kind of kitchen electrical appliance which utilizing the principle of electromagnetic induction to convert electrical energy into thermal energy. Inside the cooking plate the rectifier converts the DC voltage into 20-40 KHz high-frequency voltages. When the high frequency current flows through the inductance coil, a fast-changing magnetic field is generated. As the magnetic lines of force in the field pass through the bottom of a metal pan, the ware itself heats rapidly and the food in the pan will be heated up. As induction cooker features convenient use, no smoke, no open flame, no exhaust gas and easy cleaning, it has been regarded as environment-friendly and fashionable kitchen appliance, so it is increasingly in the good graces of consumers.
