PURPOSE: A method for heating up an electrical heating element, in particular a glow plug for an internal combustion engine is provided to prevent the heating element from becoming overheated to a temperature at which damage can occur. CONSTITUTION: A method for heating an electric element for an internal combustion engine, from an initial temperature to an operating temperature, comprises steps of determining the initial temperature of the heating element, and supplying electrical power to the heating element for heating purposes. The level of the electrical power depends on the determined initial temperature. A constant power is applied to the heating element over a period of time depending on the initial temperature.
