That's the size of the smaller plates on many electric stoves and cooktops, the ones used for simmering and small saucepans. Before ordering, check that the size, the wattage and the number on your old plate all match this one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eElectric hotplate not heating?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA hotplate element turns electricity into heat through a coiled resistance wire packed inside the plate. After years of heating and cooling, the wire can break, the terminals can corrode or burn, and the plate surface can crack. The usual symptoms are a plate that stays cold on every setting, heats only on high, trips the safety switch, or takes far longer than the others to get hot. If the plate checks out but the knob gets hot or the plate cycles oddly, the energy regulator behind the knob may be the real fault.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux part 140055946010\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated at 1000W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e145mm diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHotplate element for electric cooktops and stoves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1000W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDiameter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e145mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReplacing a hotplate safely\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCooktops and stoves are usually hard-wired, so isolate the circuit at the switchboard before you begin, and have a licensed electrician do the job if you're not qualified. Photograph the terminal connections before removing the old plate. Check that the trim ring and mounting suit the new plate, then test each setting once everything is back together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use a 1500W plate instead of 1000W?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eStick with the rating your cooktop was designed for. The wiring, energy regulator and switch for that position are matched to the plate, so moving to a higher wattage element can overload them.
