As a common kitchen appliance, induction cookers have many advantages. It uses the principle of electromagnetic induction to generate heat at the bottom of the pot, which quickly heats up food and has high cooking efficiency, greatly saving time. Compared with traditional gas stoves, induction cookers are cleaner and more hygienic to use, with no open flames, no exhaust emissions, and no harmful gases such as cigarette ash and carbon monoxide, which is beneficial for keeping the kitchen clean and the air fresh. In addition, the heating temperature of the induction cooker can be precisely controlled to meet the needs of different cooking methods, such as frying, stir frying, boiling, stewing, steaming, etc., providing people with diverse cooking choices. Moreover, the induction cooker is compact in size, easy to place and move, does not take up too much space, and is suitable for use in various kitchen environments.
Reasons for electromagnetic stove tripping:
Overload protection triggeredWhen the current required by the induction cooker exceeds the rated load capacity of the power supply line, it will trigger overload protection and cause tripping. For example, using multiple high-power appliances at home, such as air conditioners, electric water heaters, etc., coupled with the high-power operation of induction cookers, can easily cause the total current to exceed the line's carrying capacity.
Short circuit faultA short circuit in the internal circuit of the induction cooker can cause a sudden increase in current, triggering the short-circuit protection mechanism and causing the induction cooker to trip. This may be due to the wear and insulation damage of the wires inside the induction cooker, resulting in direct contact between the phase wire and the neutral or ground wire; It is also possible that electronic components such as capacitors, resistors, etc. may experience breakdown and short circuit, leading to tripping.
Overheating protection activatedIf the induction cooker is in a high-temperature working state for a long time and exceeds its normal working range, the overheat protection device will activate, causing the induction cooker to trip. For example, if the heat dissipation holes are blocked by dust or oil stains, or if the surrounding ventilation environment is poor, it will affect the heat dissipation effect and cause the temperature inside the furnace to be too high.
Internal component malfunctionThe induction cooker contains numerous electronic components inside, such asTemperature sensorControl board, power tube, etc., these components may malfunction due to aging, damage, and other reasons during long-term use, resulting in abnormal operation of the induction cooker and automatic tripping. For example, the performance of temperature sensors may decrease, making it difficult to accurately detect the temperature inside the furnace, which may inadvertently trigger overheating protection; A malfunction in the control board may cause the heating power of the induction cooker to lose control, resulting in a power outage.
Power issueThe working voltage of induction cookers is usually high, which requires high stability of the power supply. If the voltage of the household power supply is unstable, or there are problems such as poor contact and aging of the power supply line, it may cause the induction cooker to automatically stop during the heating process. For example, loose power sockets or poor contact between plugs and sockets can cause intermittent power outages during the operation of induction cookers, leading to power outages.
Pot related issuesUsing inappropriate cookware may also cause the induction cooker to trip. For example, if the bottom of the cookware is uneven and not in sufficient contact with the heating panel of the induction cooker, it can cause uneven heat transfer, increase the load on the induction cooker, and lead to power outages; Alternatively, if the material of the cookware is not suitable for induction cooker heating, such as cookware with a thin bottom or insufficient iron content, it can also affect the normal operation of the induction cooker and even cause power outages.
Improper operationWhen using an induction cooker, improper placement of the cookware, dry burning, and other behaviors may cause the induction cooker to automatically stop. For example, if the cookware is not placed in the center of the heating area of the induction cooker, the magnetic field distribution of the induction cooker will be uneven, resulting in local overheating and causing power outages; Dry burning will cause a sharp increase in temperature inside the furnace, triggering overheating protection.
Solution to electromagnetic stove tripping:
Check the power supplyFirstly, ensure that the power socket is functioning properly. After unplugging the induction cooker, wait for a period of time before reinserting it. Sometimes, resetting the electrical network can solve the problem. At the same time, check whether the power supply circuit is aging and whether the plug is loose. If there are any problems, they should be replaced or repaired in a timely manner.
Reduce loadIf the power of the induction cooker is high, try adjusting it to a lower gear to reduce the load and avoid overload. Or reduce the number of high-power electrical appliances used simultaneously to ensure that the load on the power supply line is within a safe range.
Clean the heat dissipation holesEnsure that the heat dissipation holes of the induction cooker are not blocked and remove any objects that obstruct air circulation to ensure that the induction cooker does not overheat. You can use a vacuum cleaner or soft bristled brush to gently remove dust and oil stains, avoiding the use of highly corrosive cleaning agents.
Check internal componentsIf there is suspicion of internal component failure in the induction cooker, it is recommended to send the induction cooker to a professional maintenance center for inspection to eliminate internal faults. Non professionals should not dismantle the induction cooker without authorization to avoid the risk of electric shock or more serious damage. For some common component failures, such as temperature sensor failures, it is necessary to disassemble and replace the temperature sensor with a new one; If the control board malfunctions, it needs to be repaired or replaced by professional personnel.
Use appropriate cookwareChoose cookware with a flat bottom and suitable material for induction cooker heating, ensuring that the cookware is in full contact with the heating panel of the induction cooker to ensure effective heat transfer, reduce the load on the induction cooker, and avoid power outages.
Correct operation and useWhen using an induction cooker, it should be operated correctly according to the instructions to avoid improper placement of the cookware, dry burning, and other behaviors. At the same time, follow the operating procedures of the induction cooker, such as turning on the power before placing the cookware, turning off the power before unplugging after use, etc., to extend the service life of the induction cooker and reduce the occurrence of faults.
