No. The heating element is encased in clay, which will fracture and allow the element to touch the casing, causing a short to earth.


What is And Insulator?

insulator are not good at transferring kinetic energy.conductors are better at transferring energy.Insulators are used in many products to reduce the pain of conductors when their particles heat up. The particles in a conductor bump the other end of the conductor and make the end particles to move faster and that causes the whole conductor to heat up! usually in kitchens you see metal spoons and when you use it for the stove to cook after a while your hand starts to hurt and you no longer can hold insulators are like wooden spoons which can be used to replace a metal spoon and reduce the risk of being burned
