Abstract
An induction hob comprises an inductor support plate with an opening therein. The position and size of the opening are defined in such a way that the opening is equally spaced at its edges relative to at least three inductors to be fitted to the inductor support plate. A tray-like receptacle with a control mechanism and power electronics is fixed to the inductor support plate beneath the opening. The inductors are fixed to the other side of the inductor support plate and then electrically connected by connecting cables through this opening to the control mechanism and/or power electronics. Advantageously, the cable pass through the opening unimpeded.
