Abstract

There is provided a radiant heating body (1) in which the temperature sensor (thermocouple element 12) of a temperature limiter is fitted at the hottest point on the underside of a glass ceramic plate (3). By virtue of that specific arrangement of the temperature sensor (12), with each type of heating arrangement, temperature measurement is effected directly at the hottest type-specific point. The temperature sensor (12) is desirably fitted in a ceramic tube (15) in order electrically to insulate it and to shield it from ambient heat.
