Abstract
A range has burner elements which are connected in series with a temperature switch. Upon reaching a predetermined temperatures, the switch opens and power to the burner element is secured. The burner elements are preferably open coil units, but radiant burner elements may employ similar technology with a lower upper threshold than prior art units have used. Lowering the temperature in a cooking utensil below common ignition temperatures while still allowing boiling is an objective of many embodiments.
