Electric cooker switches

I hope that this doesn't come across as a daft question...


Why do most electric cooker switches have an in-built socket? Do analogous cooker switches exist in other countries that use different types of mains sockets?


I used to think that the socket was for plugging in a gas cooker electric ignition, but there is no real reason for having a separate circuit from the ring main for this.

  • Unlike a steel bar, a spoon would only touch somewhere along the handle and some part of the bowl. There may also be wizard circuitry which might be able to distinguish a pan from a spoon.


    I see from the Smeg literature that the size of the pan and each heating zone should match closely. If true, that rules out any pan which is not circular. If you want to deglaze a roasting tin, how do you do it? ?
