The resistance is dependent on the heating effect. The heater coil is composed of a high-resistance material, such as nichrome, thus giving it a higher output of heat when it carries current. The connecting wires consist of low-resistance substances such as copper or aluminium; thus, a minimal amount of heat is produced in the connecting wires
