¿Mi sartén funciona en inducción?

Tell us what your pan is made of, do the magnet test and fill in the sizes. You see at once whether the pan will probably work, with induction pans from our comparison.

¿De qué material es la sartén?

Sí, esta sartén probablemente funciona en inducción

Check the size too: your base is 20 cm and your cooking zone 21 cm. Novy gives a rule of thumb of a base of about 60% of the zone. The Consumentenbond says problems can occur if the pan differs more than 2 cm from the zone. The sources differ, so check your hob's manual. The base must also be flat.

Cómo calculamos

An induction hob heats the pan with a magnetic field. That only works if the base of the pan is magnetic. So the magnet test is the main check: if a magnet sticks to the base, the pan can be used on induction. According to the Consumentenbond, the base must also conduct heat and be completely flat.

Size matters too, but the sources do not agree here. Novy writes that the base of the pan should be about 60% of the chosen cooking zone. The Consumentenbond says you can get problems if the pan is more than 2 cm larger or smaller than the zone. This tool does not calculate with your cooking zone. It only warns for a base smaller than 12 cm, because many zones do not switch on then. What applies to your hob is in its manual.

What this tool cannot know: how thick the magnetic layer is, whether the base is truly flat, and which pan detection your hob has. An induction symbol on the pan or the box is the surest sign. The pans below come from our comparison and are marked as suitable for induction by the shops.
