Connecting two induction electric stoves of the same power, voltage, and current in parallel is not advisable and could lead to several issues, including electrical hazards and damage to the equipment. Here's why:
Electrical Overload: When you connect devices in parallel, the total current drawn from the power source increases. Induction cooktops require a significant amount of power to function, and connecting them in parallel can lead to an overload on the electrical circuit or the power source, potentially causing a fuse to blow or a circuit breaker to trip.
Wiring and Connection Issues: Parallel connections require proper electrical wiring and connections to ensure equal sharing of current between the devices. If not done correctly, one of the cooktops may end up drawing more current than the other, leading to uneven heating or, worse, damage to the unit.
Fire Hazard: An electrical overload due to the parallel connection can generate excessive heat in the wiring and connections, potentially leading to a fire hazard.
Warranty and Safety Concerns: Connecting the cooktops in a manner not recommended by the manufacturer may void the warranty and could also be considered unsafe.
Instead of connecting induction cooktops in parallel, if you need to use multiple cooktops simultaneously, it is best to use separate power outlets on different circuits. This way, each cooktop will draw power independently without overloading a single circuit.
If you require additional cooking capacity beyond what a single cooktop can provide, it is advisable to consider commercial-grade cooking equipment or consult an electrician to assess the electrical system's capacity and make appropriate modifications if necessary. Always follow the manufacturer's guidelines and safety recommendations when using electrical appliances to ensure the safety and longevity of the devices.
