Induction hobs

Unlike gas and electric hobs that use magnetism instead of direct heat to heat pots and pans. Induction hobs have coils beneath the glass surface that carry a varying electric current. When an induction-compatible pan is placed on the top, the magnetic field generates electricity in the iron core of the pan which heats it and indirectly cooks whatever is in the. Induction hobs generally cook faster and are favoured for their energy efficiency, with many homeowners reporting a decrease in their overall cooking costs.

These magnetic fields can cause interference with pacemakers, which is why it is advised to maintain a minimum of five to ten centimetres distance between the cooker and the pacemaker.
