FIELD: domestic appliances. SUBSTANCE: tubular electric resistive element lies in one plane and is anchored under heating plate of teapot, leads-out of resistive element are connected to temperature limiter located near center of resistive element and designed to switch off power supply when this temperature rises above preset value. Part of resistive element lies substantially on perimeter of plate. Leads-out of resistive element are drawn towards its center. Given resistive element can be specifically used in manufacture of electric teapot. EFFECT: prolonged service life and improved operational efficiency. 7 cl, 4 dwg
