Question
An electric kettle manufactured by a non-Jew, and if immersed, it will be damaged. How can it be made kosher for use?
Answer
The final assembly must be done by a Jew, meaning it should be disassembled and reassembled by a Jew. However, the reassembly must be done by a craftsman, meaning not everyone can do it, only an expert.
