Normal noise while the appliance is working Induction heating technology is based on the creation of electromagnetic fields that generate heat directly at the base of the pan. Depending on how the pan has been manufactured, certain noises or vibrations may be produced such as those described below: A deep humming sound as in a transformer This noise is produced when cooking with a high power level. It is caused by the amount of energy transferred from the hob to the pan.
