The claim seems dubious in Europe, but in North America the stove has access to twice the voltage potential as the kettle, so can heat faster. Then with equal losses the stove wins.
- im-a-baby 4y agoEuropeans use 220V for everything.
- eru 4y agoWell, Germans like to use three-phase power for their electric ovens. (Still nominally at 230 Volt, but it's not quite the same as two-phase power.)
