Here is some general information about the kettle's use and electric components:
The kettle is always connected to a power source when plugged in, but the electrical circuit remains open until the user activates it by pressing the power button. Once pressed, the circuit is closed, allowing electricity to flow through the system and start heating the water.
Inside the base, a heating element converts electrical energy into heat. This element is in direct contact with the bottom of the kettle, where it heats the water. The temperature is monitored by a built-in thermostat. When the water reaches the pre-set temperature, the thermostat detects this change and automatically cuts off power to the heating element, stopping the heating process.
The kettle also has a boil-dry protection mechanism. If the kettle is turned on without sufficient water inside, the heating element heats up too quickly. The thermostat recognizes this abnormal temperature rise and immediately cuts off the power to prevent damage or hazards.
