Hi all

my stove is a 1971 Moffat Maitre D, 30 inch, model 30 T 68, (45 years old!).


When I do my research, I found that Moffat was part of GE. unfortunately, I didn't write down who advised me to buy a Universal UB963 element when I gave them the model number. I am afraid it is incomplete advice, no mention was made of short prong, long prong.

If you're going to take the element out anyhow, it shouldn't be hard
to take it out before buying the replacement, and measure and take a
picture of the prongs. OTOH, if you buy long prong, you can cut them
shorter maybe and then grind or sand off any burrs left by cutting.

Not that I've ever done any of this.

It was the wrong advice I think.

I'll call Reliance to ask about the prong length of that model. I only learned after the element was replaced that the wattage info was on the back of the stove.

Any help would be very much appreciate it.

You call this help? I would guess that it's fine, at 240 volts it
will still be under 15 amps. Right?

Thanks a lot.
