Electrolux's description adds (NZ) backer, a version note we haven't confirmed, so treat it as a specific variant rather than a generic 160mm element. Wattage isn't recorded. Compare the size, terminals and the part number on your old element before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCooktop hotplate not heating?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe element is the heating coil or plate under the pot. Mains power passes through its resistance wire and turns into heat, controlled by the energy regulator behind the knob. Elements fail open circuit, so the hotplate stays cold, or they short to earth, tripping the safety switch the moment it's turned on. Visible splits, blistering or burn marks on the element, or a hotplate that only gets warm, are other clues. A faulty regulator or burnt terminal can cause similar symptoms, so test before replacing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux group part 140101087017\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e160mm cooktop element\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(NZ) backer version per Electrolux's description\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWattage not stated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e160mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eElectrical safety\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost electric cooktops are hard-wired, so a licensed electrician should isolate the circuit at the switchboard and do the replacement.
