The Electric Furnace is an improved and more costly version of the [[Iron Furnace]].
 
The benefits of this device compared to the Iron Furnace are that the Electric Furnace is 12.5% faster and, as the name indicates, uses electricity. By running on electricity instead of burning items, it is able to shut off immediately upon finishing (thus avoiding wasted energy). You can best take advantage of this by having some form of energy storage between the Electro Furnace and the generator(s).
The Electric Furnace uses 700 EUs per operation. When compared to coal, which uses 400 EUs per operation (Coal has an EU yield of 4000 in a generator and provides 10 operations in an Iron Furnace) but does not stop when there is nothing else to smelt with, electro furnaces are technically less efficient than coal, but can be indirectly (or directly) powered by sources like solar panels and do not waste energy.

== Usage ==
 
Simply add something to smelt in the top slot and supply the Electric Furnace with [[EU]].
*The lower slot is used to provide power from a [[RE Battery]] or other energy storage item if a direct [[Cable]] connection is not available.
