Hello List et al
I frequently come across a piano heater - really ancient - which is
simply
an insulated element which has been attached in a zig-zag configuration
to
the back of the "knee-board" There is a round three pin socket (male)
let
into the panel. I have never come across one working though. The length
of
that element is such that the configuration takes up at least ten
side-to-side (or end-to-end) stretches across the back of the
knee-board.
This is the sort of heater which could cause fires....
Regards
