Introduction
The aim here is to see the various components that make up the device, to understand what they are intended for, how they work independently and also how they interact with each other.

The principle is simple. The base is connected to the mains via the power cord. When the reservoir is placed on the base, the 3a 3b device powers the resistance at the bottom of the reservoir. A 6 switch on the reservoir handle switches the power on and off.

The reservoir consists of a plastic shell with a handle. Inside this handle, a 6 switch system enables the power supply for the kettle. The resistance 4 placed inside, is fixed by three screws to the connection device 3b. A seal 5 ensures watertightness.
-
The 6 switch is connected to the 3b device located at the bottom of the reservoir, by a plastic rod which, by translation, activates an electrical contact system.

The device 3 is the centerpiece of this kettle. It performs a number of functions: - electrical connection between the base and the reservoir - manual switching on and off of the resistance - automatic switching off when the water temperature is reached.
-
It consists of 2 parts. One, placed on the base 3a, the other placed at the base of the tank, 3b. The latter performs all 3 functions. It is made up of a system of metal fins which are activated to make electrical contacts.
-
The resistance has two 7 terminals mounted on a 12 metal support. Part 3 is made of metal fins. The 9 and 10 blades come into contact with the 7 resistance terminals. The 8 blade comes into contact with the 12 support.
-
The ON/OFF switch 11 is located on top of part 3.
-
When this button is switched on, the 9 blade is activated, allowing current to flow between the socket in the base and one of the 7 terminals on the resistance.
-
The 10 blade is normally closed (the water is cold). The current can pass through and feed the resistance, which starts to heat. When the temperature is reached, the 8 blade deforms and opens the circuit by toggling the 11 switch. The resistance stops heating. The ON/OFF button 6 returns to its position at the stop.

Now that we know the functions of our appliance and are familiar with its subassemblies and operation, we can move on to the repair phase with the following tuto : "Kettles - Common breakdowns"
