The process involved here is simple. There are some metals which have high resistivity. The loss due to this resistivity can be obtained from the formula I*I*r. I is the current flows through the conductor and the r is the resistance of metal. Heat is produced as a result of this loss. This principle is mainly used in many heating equipments.
When electrical power is passed through this metal heat dissipated. This conductors are placed as coils, this coil are known as heating coil.
The power consumption of this equipments are more than lighting equipments.
this post is really interesting I think that my husband will be very interested to read your posts too. I call him McGuiver because he always figure things out. He works on some boilers before and make it run without any help. we'll be checking on you my friend
