Solid plates are the flat disc type, as opposed to exposed coils, and they appear on many cooktops and stoves from the Electrolux group. Measure your old plate across its face and check the rating usually stamped underneath before ordering, as diameter and wattage both need to match.

What goes wrong\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA solid hotplate has its heating coil embedded beneath a flat disc that spreads heat evenly into the base of the pan. Faults tend to be clear cut. A plate that stays cold on every setting usually has an open circuit in the element or a failed connection at the terminals. A plate that heats only partly, smokes heavily or has cracked across the surface needs replacing for safety. If it trips the safety switch, moisture or a breakdown in the insulation is the usual cause. Older plates can also sag or warp, so pans no longer sit flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux part 4055918314\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCross reference HP-180-4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e180mm diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1500W rating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid hotplate element\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDiameter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e180mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1500W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSolid hotplate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting a solid hotplate\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIsolate power to the cooktop at the switchboard before you start, and use a licensed electrician for hard-wired installations. With the plate cold, lift the cooktop top or access panel and disconnect the terminals, noting their order. Check the spill ring and its seal, fit the new plate level, reconnect and restore power. Heat it gently the first time, as a little smoke while the surface coating cures is common.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I measure a hotplate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMeasure straight across the top face of the plate, not including the chrome or stainless trim ring.
