Electric Cooktops

An electric cooktop heats with radiant elements under smooth glass-ceramic or with coil burners, and it needs a 240-volt circuit rather than a gas line. A smooth electric stove top wipes clean and gives a flat surface for sliding pans; coil models are the simplest to service. Expandable elements let one burner fit both a small saucepan and a large stockpot, and a warming zone keeps finished dishes hot. Common widths are 30 and 36 inches. Match the cut-out in your countertop and check the electrical requirements in the installation guide. Induction cooktops are a different technology and have their own page.
