It is also listed under the code HP-02T. The 1100W rating usually suits one of the smaller cooking zones. No models are on file, so compare the wattage, diameter and terminal layout with your old hotplate before ordering, and check for 4055917639 or HP-02T on any label.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWestinghouse hotplate not heating?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA hotplate element turns current into heat through a resistance wire, controlled by the switch for that zone. When the wire breaks, one plate stays cold while the others work normally. Other signs include a plate that glows only in patches, sparks or a burnt smell from the element, a visible split or blister on its surface, or a tripped safety switch when that zone is turned on. If the element tests fine, the energy regulator for that zone is the next thing to check. The trim ring supplied with it surrounds the plate and catches spills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux part 4055917639\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso listed as HP-02T\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1100W hotplate element\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrim ring included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor Westinghouse electric cooktops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1100W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eChanging a hotplate safely\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIsolate the cooktop at the switchboard before starting. Most electric cooktops are hard-wired, so in Australia the replacement should be done by a licensed electrician. Note or photograph the terminal connections, transfer them to the new element in the same order, and seat the trim ring evenly. Test each zone on low first, as new elements often smoke briefly while coatings burn off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the trim ring included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. Part 4055917639 is listed as the 1100W element together with its trim ring, so you get both pieces. Compare the diameter and terminals with your old element. For the 1800W version used on larger zones, look for part 4055917654.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Electrolux","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44551097352270,"sku":"4055917639","price":80.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0768\/3489\/7998\/files\/4055917639-genuine-westinghouse-1100w-hotplate-element-with-trim-ring.jpg?v=1792026216","url":"https:\/\/partsshop.com.au\/products\/4055917639-genuine-westinghouse-1100w-hotplate-element-with-trim-ring","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
