Abstract

A surface heating system is provided. The surface heating system includes a heatable surface element with a supporting structure on which a conductive layer is arranged that is completely covered by a cover layer. A first induction coil is configured separately of the heatable surface element and is connectable to an AC voltage source. The heatable surface element is configured for generating an eddy current that results in heating of the heatable surface element within the conductive layer when the first induction coil is acted upon with an AC voltage
