3 phase is 380V
- margalabargala 1y agoThree phase consumer induction stoves are approximately 0% of the consumer induction stove market.
- buzer 1y agoMy understanding is that many of them can be wired as 1, 2 or 3 phase at least in Nordic countries, though admittedly the ones which allow 3 are somewhat rarer especially when looking at stove top-only models (not combined stove+oven).
- margalabargala 1y agoAs far as I can tell, there are a single digit number of municipalities on the planet where two phase power is available. Do you have more details on that I can read? There's not a ton of.info on Wikipedia and I'm interested to know more.
- buzer 1y agoIf you are asking about some stoves that can be installed that way, there is for example FÖRDELAKTIG from Ikea. The manual is at https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/manuals/foerdelaktig-induction-hob-integrated-extractor-ikea-700-black__AA-2312628-5-1.pdf https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/manuals/foerdelaktig-induction-ho..., you can find the wiring options from page 13.
- margalabargala 1y agoThat is fascinating. I was unaware this existed. Thank you so much for sharing this. I learned something new today!
- jcynix 1y agoTake a look at the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continental_Europe_Synchronous_Area https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continental_Europe_Synchronous... power grid. You have three lines of 230V between each pair, and you can connect appliances with either two or three of the lines, depending in their power needs.
- joha4270 1y agoThat link isn't really a source for residential 3-phase power. Almost every electrical network is 3 phase distribution, the matter under debate is if you bring every phase to each house, or if a phase reaches every third house. Anecdotally I have never seen an electrical panel without three phases, but when I went looking it was like trying to find a source for the fact the sky is blue.
- hexo 1y agoGood we have one. What a nice 0% we are.
- margalabargala 1y agoLike I said, approximately. They exist. But mostly they are not three phase.
- SchemaLoad 1y agoI'm pretty sure most of them just use a higher amp circuit. A 40 amp circuit at 230v is 9kW which is more than enough. I've also seen one particularly high end stove which used a battery to cover the extra power needed for the highest setting. Also means you could use it in a power outage.
- com2kid 1y agoI can easily use all the power my largest induction burner gives me on a 240v outlet. I really want one of those battery boost units for my next big purchase. Honestly just browning 4 chicken thighs at once is too much for 240v. (My gas range couldn't do any better!)
- jcynix 1y agoNo, they simply get connected with all three phases, which are available in-house anyway, with a standard 16A circuit breaker on each. That's what installed in our house and that's what I've seen in various holiday homes.
- wvh 1y agoMy common model IKEA stove – rebranded Siemens or Electrolux – runs at ~400v (Northern Europe). I know because it broke and I almost poked at it, until I got spooked by the warning labels. It's on its own circuit. Not an expert but as far as I know, most houses in Western/Northern Europe have a three-prong stove/oven connection in the kitchen for a ~400v feed.
- stephen_g 1y agoIt’s 400V in most of the world actually, but residential induction stoves are basically always single phase as far as I have ever seen.
- Nursie 1y agoI have a three-phase 'smeg'. We have that particular model because it was literally the only induction cooktop on the market that would fit the existing hole in our stone worktop. Quite a lot of them can be wired either one, two or three-phase when you look into their installation instructions, it's just that not that many houses have three-phase power and not many people are willing to pay to get that upgraded just for the hob.
