What E-25
actually means.

The electric PFE models monitor element current and compare it with a nominal amps figure stored in special settings (SP-12). A reading well above that figure raises E-25, pointing at the supply, wiring or elements.

What to do when E-25 shows on the commercial appliance

Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from Henny Penny's own guidance for E-25 on its commercial appliances. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Silence the alarm and turn the fryer off.

02

Note whether other equipment on the same circuit was just added or moved, which the technician will ask about.

03

Book a visit: Henny Penny sends the check to the SP-12 setting, the electrical supply, the wiring and the elements.

Still there?

It usually turns into commercial controls and board repair. Book with the code and the model number.

What not to do

E-25 is too much current; the opposite, too little, is E-27, and heat stuck on is E-26. It is not an oil temperature reading.

Where E-25 usually leads

Commercial controls and board repair.

Controller, touch panel, probe or sensor, relay, contactor, power supply, door switch or interlock, tested before anything is changed · moderate.

Questions
about E-25.

Can I clear E-25 myself?
Silence the alarm and turn the fryer off. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
What is SP-12 on a Henny Penny electric fryer?
It is the special setting that stores the nominal element current. E-25 and E-27 compare the live reading with it, so a wrong value there can cause either code.
Can a power problem in the building cause E-25?
Yes. Henny Penny includes the electrical supply in the check, so a technician may measure the incoming voltage as well as the elements.
Is it safe to run the fryer with E-25?
Turn it off. High current points to an element or wiring problem that is better found before it heats a vat full of oil.

Back to your everyday

Still showing E-25?

A booking with a code goes further when it has the code as shown, the model and serial from the data plate, and a word on whether the unit still holds temperature, heats, rinses or spins. With those three, the office can match the likely part to your unit the same day.
