What needs to be clarified
Establish interruption conditions and cookware compatibility with the selected zone, distinguishing bottom design and power settings from evidence of a hob fault.
Materials to prepare
- Hob with accessible identification and connection information
- Both pans with bottom photographs and fill records
- Model instructions, display video and original power settings
What to compare
Inspect pan bottoms and hob surface; record dimensions, positions and settings. Compare equal water quantities on the same zone and setting, using the model’s cookware test if provided. Log indications and consumption over time, separately comparing known suitable reference cookware.
Possible outcome of the analysis
The opinion may describe reproducible dependence on cookware or configuration, control comparisons and grounds for further diagnosis of connection, controls or power components.
Limits of the conclusions
A magnet sticking to one part of the bottom does not establish whole-pan compatibility. One zone does not represent the entire hob; trained personnel perform invasive and electrical tests.
