No, it is not possible to light an electric stove with matches. Unlike gas stoves, which require a flame to ignite the gas, electric stoves rely on electricity to generate heat. They typically have heating elements or coils that are powered by electricity and do not involve an open flame. Therefore, matches are not suitable for lighting an electric stove.

To use an electric stove, you simply need to turn the dial or press the buttons to select the desired temperature or heat setting. The stove will then use electricity to heat the designated element, which in turn heats the cookware placed on top of it.

If you're experiencing issues with your electric stove not working, it's recommended to check the power supply, fuses, or circuit breakers, or consult the appliance's manual or contact a professional for assistance.
