An electric fryer comprises an outer pot (1, fig.2) and an inner pot (2, fig.2), the inner pot (2, fig.2) having an electric heating element (22, fig. 5) attached to the bottom of it. The outer pot (1, fig.2) has a socket 3 positioned on its base, the socket 3 having two notches 32 and a groove 33 to receive the two connecting pins (221, fig.5) of the heating element and an actuating rod (222, fig.5). A micro-switch 13 is also provided on the bottom of the outer pot (1, fig. 2) body, and comprises a support member 121 which houses a rod 122 having a spring 123 fitted around it, the bottom of the inner pot (2, fig.2) pressing on the rod 122, against the force of the spring 123, and closing the switch to provide power to the device when the inner pot (2, fig.2) is in place. When the inner pot (2, fig.2) is lowered into the outer pot (1, fig.2), the actuating rod 122 contacts a push-stop block 353 on the sliding cover 35 of the socket 3 and moves the cover 35 horizontally, allowing the pins (221, fig.5) and actuating rod (222, fig.5) to be inserted into the notches 32 and inserting groove 33.
