    • There are two heating elements which heat up the two orange hot plates.

    • The red indicator light is in parallel with the voltage source, so it is always on when the device is plugged in. The green indicator light is in parallel with a thermal switch which is normally closed, creating a short circuit so the green light is normally off.

    • There is thermal paste between the hot plate and the thermal switch so that heat is conducted to the switch well. When the thermal switch reaches a certain temperature, it opens, allowing current to flow through the green light, indicating that the device is hot enough to place food in.
